Hello Lee-Martin ,
if you apply the theme via the "Invoke-PnPSiteTemplate" command, it is applied immediately as the current selection below site theme for the current site and does not show up below the "Sharepoint Theme themes". But you don't need to be a SharePoint Admin to do so.
If you want your theme to be displayed below "SharePoint themes", you need to connect to your SharePoint admin site ("https://<tenant>-admin.sharepoint.com") as a SharePoint administrator and invoke the Add-PnPTenantTheme command. But you need to be a SharePoint admin for that and that theme will be available on all sites.

So there is no way to just do it for just one site? My client doesn't want me to have admin access across the whole Site collection
- Well... you can directly set the theme colors on one site using the "Invoke-SiteTemplate" approach, but it seems like you can not add new themes to the gallery just for the one site.
Otherwise..... You could ask your client to execute that Add-PnPTenantTheme command.... But remember; Then the Theme will be available on every site in the tenant.
