About the Role
Lead and grow a technical service operation across commercial renewable-energy systems. Myriad Products is a well-established renewable energy business with over 20 years' experience delivering commercial solar, biomass and low-carbon energy systems across the UK. We have built a substantial installed solar base and an established operations and maintenance (O&M) service operation across our renewable technologies. We are now looking for a Business Manager to lead that service business, drive the growth of our commercial solar O&M, and establish a foothold in other related technologies.

This is a lead-and-grow role where you will take ownership of an established O&M service operation spanning our renewable-energy systems, including 14 direct field service engineers and other subcontracted support. You will have the mandate, backing, and platform to build the commercial solar side into a major growth area for the business. The role offers the stability of an established operation to run alongside the opportunity and ownership of building something significant on top of it.

The Opportunity
Commercial solar is now a well-established part of the UK's building stock. With a large and growing installed base comes a substantial, largely untapped market for professional solar O&M. Myriad is exceptionally well placed to capture this market with an established brand, an installed base to build from, operational capability to deliver, and a clear view of how to take a compelling proposition to market. What has been missing is someone to own it and drive it.

The Role
You will take commercial ownership of Myriad's O&M business — leading the established service operation across our renewable technologies while building the commercial solar O&M offering into a core part of the company's future. Your focus will be on growth. You will:
- Take overall responsibility for Myriad's existing O&M service operation across renewable-energy systems including biomass and solar, ensuring quality delivery and strong customer relationships
- Build the commercial solar O&M business — shaping the proposition, defining the target market and driving new contract growth
- Develop the commercial model — pricing, contract structures and service levels that work for customers and the business
- Own the pipeline — identifying, targeting and winning commercial solar O&M contracts
- Work with Myriad's operational teams to ensure the service is delivered to a high and scalable standard
- Take ownership of the numbers — revenue, margin and the growth of the recurring contract base
- Grow the business to the point where it needs, and supports, its own team and structure

Requirements

Experience
- A background in commercial solar — understanding the technology, market and customer
- Experience winning and growing business — ability to build a pipeline and convert it
- Experience in O&M, service or maintenance-contract businesses is an advantage

About you
- Commercially minded operator with ownership mentality — not just a sales target but a business to lead and grow
- Comfortable owning proposition, pricing, pipeline and P&L, not just delivery
- Self-directed with the drive to build something from a strong starting position
- Strong customer and stakeholder skills — credible with building owners, facilities managers and commercial decision-makers
- Ambition to build and grow a significant business line
- Must be within commutable distance of Melton Mowbray, Leicestershire
- Must already hold the unrestricted right to work in the UK

Qualifications
Commercial solar background is essential. No specific formal qualifications are stated but relevant industry experience and commercial acumen are required.
