Germany | Permanent | Renewable Energy / Solar PV

I'm currently recruiting for an exciting opportunity with a growing renewable energy business delivering large-scale photovoltaic projects across Germany.

They are looking for an experienced Site Manager / Bauleiter to take responsibility for the successful delivery of utility-scale PV projects, coordinating contractors, overseeing site activities and ensuring projects are delivered safely, on time and to the required quality standards.

Your responsibilities will include:

Managing and coordinating construction activities on site
