See Yourself at Sun Collectors

Sun Collectors is a residential and commercial solar company based right here in Peoria, serving homeowners and businesses across Central Illinois. We built this company around a simple idea: when we install a system, we’re the ones who stand behind it, not a call center in another state, not a subcontractor who disappears after the panels go up. That local accountability shapes everything we do, from how we design a system for Illinois weather and Ameren’s utility structure, to how we support the people who work here.

We’re growing, and we’re looking for people who take pride in doing the job right, whether that’s on a rooftop, on the phone with a customer, or behind the scenes keeping projects moving. In return, we offer competitive pay, a team that actually knows your name, and the chance to be part of the clean energy shift happening in our own backyard. If you want work that matters and a company that’s invested in Central Illinois for the long haul, we’d like to meet you.

Benefits

Along with competitive pay, full-time positions are benefits eligible which includes:

  • Health, Dental, Vision, and Life Insurance
  • 10 days of PTO
  • 9 Paid Holidays
