Operations Manager – Solar & Electrical
n
Technaus Solar
n
Technaus Solar is looking for a high-calibre Operations Manager to take ownership of our Victorian post-sale operation and drive the performance, efficiency and accountability of our installation network.
n
This is a senior leadership opportunity for an experienced A-Grade Electrician who has progressed beyond the tools and wants genuine responsibility, authority and earning potential.
n
You may already be an Operations Manager, Installation Manager, Electrical Supervisor, Leading Hand or senior electrician ready for the next step.
n
What matters is that you understand how solar and electrical installations should run, can manage people, solve problems quickly and are prepared to take ownership of results.
n
This is not a coordinator or administration role.
n
You will be the key operational link between sales, customers, installers and management, ensuring every job moves from sale to installation efficiently, professionally and profitably.
n
And importantly, your earning potential will be directly linked to the results you deliver.
n
THE ROLE
n
You will take responsibility for the daily operational performance of Technaus' Victorian installation operation.
n
This includes:
n
n
Taking ownership of the entire post-sale process
n
Managing and coordinating our Eastern State installation network
n
Directly managing installers, electricians and contractors
n
Ensuring jobs are scheduled, progressing and completed on time
n
Driving installation capacity and productivity
n
Identifying bottlenecks and fixing them before they become customer problems
n
Managing installation quality, compliance and workmanship standards
n
Holding installers and operational teams accountable for performance
n
Resolving operational and customer escalations quickly
n
Working closely with sales to ensure sold jobs are operationally viable
n
Managing communication between customers, installers and internal teams
n
Monitoring installation performance, productivity and completion rates
n
Improving scheduling, workflow and operational processes
n




Identifying operational risks and implementing practical solutions
n
Providing management with clear visibility of operational performance
n
Helping build and strengthen our installer network as the business grows
n
Taking ownership when something goes wrong and making sure it gets resolved
n
n
WE ARE LOOKING FOR A LEADER — NOT AN ADMINISTRATOR
n
You need to be someone who can walk into a problem, understand what is happening and fix it.
n
You will be expected to make decisions, manage people, challenge poor performance and continuously improve the way the operation runs.
n
We are looking for someone who naturally thinks:
n
What is the problem? Why is it happening? How do we fix it? How do we stop it happening again?
n
The right person will be:
n
n
An A-Grade Electrician – ESSENTIAL
n
Holder of a Full Australian Driver's Licence – ESSENTIAL
n
Experienced within the solar, battery and electrical industry
n
Experienced managing installers, electricians, contractors or operational teams
n
Technically strong enough to understand installation issues and challenge poor workmanship
n
Commercially minded and results-driven
n
Highly organised and capable of managing multiple priorities
n
Confident making decisions without needing constant direction
n
A robust communicator who can deal confidently with customers, installers, sales teams and senior management
n
Comfortable having difficult conversations and holding people accountable
n
A strong problem solver who doesn't wait to be told what to do
n
Process-driven, but practical enough to think outside the box when required
n
Someone who takes ownership and follows issues through to completion
n
n
THIS COULD BE YOUR NEXT STEP
n
You don't necessarily need to already hold the title of Operations Manager.
n
If you are an experienced A-Grade Electrician, Electrical Supervisor, Leading Hand or Installation Manager who understands the solar industry and knows you are capable of running a larger operation, we want to hear from you.
n




This role is suited to someone who wants to move beyond simply completing installations and start managing the people, systems and performance behind them.
n
WHY TECHNAUS?
n
Technaus Solar is an established Australian solar and battery business with ambitious plans for continued growth.
n
We aren't looking for someone to simply maintain the status quo.
n
We want someone who can take control of the Victorian operational function, build accountability, improve systems and help us scale without compromising installation quality or customer experience.
n
You will have genuine responsibility and the opportunity to influence how the operation is structured and improved.
n
This is an opportunity to become a key member of the leadership team and have a direct impact on the future growth of the business.
n
THE PACKAGE
n
$100,000 Base Salary + Super + Performance Incentives
n
OTE up to $200,000 per annum
n
We believe strong operational performance should be rewarded.
n
This is not a role where your earning potential is limited to a fixed salary.
n
In addition to your base salary, you will have the opportunity to earn up to $100,000 per annum in performance incentives, giving you a total earning potential of up to $200,000 per annum.
n
The incentive structure will be based on clear and measurable operational outcomes, including areas such as:
n
n
Installation volume and productivity
n
Installation turnaround times
n
Installation quality and compliance
n
Reduction of operational delays and bottlenecks
n
Customer outcomes
n
Installer and contractor performance
n
Operational efficiency
n
Delivery against agreed performance targets
n
n
The objective is simple:
n
If you improve the operation and deliver measurable results, you should share in the value you create.
n
For the right person, this provides an opportunity to combine the security of a base salary with significant performance-based earning potential.
n
READY TO TAKE THE NEXT STEP?
n
If you're an experienced A-Grade Electrician who has progressed beyond the tools — or you're ready to — and you have the technical knowledge, commercial thinking and leadership capability to run a high-performing solar and electrical operation, we want to hear from you.
n
If you want genuine responsibility, the authority to make changes and the opportunity to earn based on the results you deliver:
