A new opportunity has opened in South Africa’s growing renewable energy sector for a Solar Asset Manager. Recruited through Dynexity, this is a permanent, intermediate-level role offering R55,000 per month. If you have hands-on experience looking after solar assets and you understand how commercial and industrial solar installations work in South Africa, this role is worth a close look.
About the company and the work
Dynexity (Pty) Ltd is an owner-run recruitment company, and it is recruiting on behalf of a client that needs a Solar Asset Manager. The work sits in renewable energy asset management, with a focus on solar photovoltaic (PV) installations. That means looking after solar assets so they keep performing well, and dealing with the commercial and technical arrangements that surround them.
South Africa’s solar market includes many commercial and industrial (C&I) installations set up behind the meter, where power is generated on site and used by the customer, as well as projects connected through municipal small-scale embedded generation (SSEG) processes. This role calls for practical experience of that environment, not just theoretical knowledge of solar technology.
Role details
The position is advertised as a permanent, intermediate-level Asset Manager role, based in South Africa. No specific city is stated in the advert, so applicants should confirm the working arrangement and base when they apply. The advertised salary is R55,000 per month. The original advert, posted on 28 October 2026, states an application window of 19 days, so it is worth applying promptly and checking the original advert for its current status.
Please note that the source advert is brief: it does not publish a separate, detailed list of day-to-day duties. The responsibilities described here are therefore limited to what the advert itself states, and nothing has been added beyond that. In short, the role centres on solar asset management, including working with SCADA systems, solar PV system components, C&I behind-the-meter commercial structures, operations and maintenance (O&M) contracts, and service level agreements (SLAs).
Requirements
Only the requirements stated in the original advert are listed here:
- A tertiary qualification in Engineering is preferred. Candidates with qualifications in Finance, Business Administration, Data or Analytics, or a related field will also be considered.
- At least 3 years of experience in renewable energy asset management.
- Proficiency with SCADA systems.
- A strong understanding of solar PV system components.
- A deep understanding of C&I behind-the-meter commercial structures, O&M contracts, and SLAs.
- Practical experience with South African embedded generation and municipal SSEG processes.
Desired skills listed in the advert include asset management, solar, PV, and SCADA.
Where to find and apply safely
This vacancy is listed on CareerJunction, and the Apply button on this page links directly to the original CareerJunction advert (job 2646342, reference JHB004036). Apply through that link, and be cautious of anyone who contacts you outside that route or asks for payment: a genuine recruiter will never ask you to pay a fee to apply for a job.
Practical tips
When you apply, make it easy for the recruiter to see the match. Highlight your years in renewable energy asset management, name the SCADA platforms you have worked with, and describe the solar PV portfolios you have looked after. If you have worked on C&I behind-the-meter projects or municipal SSEG applications, say so plainly, and mention any experience with O&M contracts and SLA performance. Keep your CV focused on solar and asset management rather than general engineering or finance work.
How the process works
Applications go through the original CareerJunction advert, where Dynexity is managing the recruitment. Suitable applicants can expect to be contacted by the recruiter about the next steps. As with any advertised role, the client makes the final hiring decision, and timelines can vary, so it is sensible to apply early within the stated window and to keep an eye on the original advert for updates.
