French solar developer scaling across ground, agrivoltaic, and parking installations
Photosol operates a 1.2+ GWc portfolio of ground-mounted, agrivoltaic, and parking-canopy solar projects across France and internationally, with a finance-heavy hiring mix now accelerating. The project list—ERP implementation, BESS plant construction, subsidiary expansion, and finance function digitalization—signals rapid scaling of back-office infrastructure to support international growth, a theme echoed in their pain-point tracking around multi-country accounting consolidation and group system integration.
