The role

TGRC is partnered with a leading international provider of utility-scale and commercial solar PV solutions to recruit a Project Controller for their growing UK team in Basingstoke. This is a fantastic opportunity to play a key role in the delivery of one of the UK's largest solar projects, joining a business at the forefront of the renewable energy transition.

This is not a traditional project controlling role. Alongside financial oversight and project performance monitoring, you'll work across project operations, business processes and systems improvement, making a meaningful contribution to how projects are delivered and the wider organisation operates.

The Role

Working closely with Project Managers and senior leadership, you will provide financial and operational support across a portfolio of renewable energy projects. You'll be responsible for monitoring project performance, analysing financial data, supporting forecasting activities and helping to develop the systems and processes that underpin successful project delivery.

This role is well suited to someone who enjoys combining analytical work with cross-functional collaboration and continuous improvement initiatives.

Key Responsibilities
  • Support Project Managers and Business Unit leaders with project financial performance and cost control.

  • Monitor project budgets, identify cost variances and provide meaningful analysis and recommendations.

  • Prepare monthly forecasts, financial reports and ad hoc analysis to support business decisions.

  • Assist in the preparation and coordination of forecast review meetings.

  • Track and report on key project and business performance indicators (KPIs).

  • Act as a key user for the company's ERP and reporting systems, supporting users and driving continuous improvements.

  • Work collaboratively with Finance, IT, Logistics and Operations teams to optimise internal systems and processes.

  • Contribute to business improvement projects focused on enhancing project controls, reporting and operational efficiency.

  • Support the implementation of new tools, reporting capabilities and best practices across the business.

Your Profile
  • Several years of professional experience in finance/controlling, ideally in a project-driven environment.

  • Experience working within a project-based environment.

  • Strong results orientation and customer service mindset

  • Excellent organisational and communication skills

  • Experience with ERP systems and affinity for IT tools

  • Ideally, experience in accounting or logistics

Salary: £55,000 - £65,000 (room for flexibility)
