Relevant electrical qualifications (e.g. NVQ Level 3, HNC, or equivalent).
High-voltage authorisation or the ability to obtain it quickly.
A proactive approach to fault-finding and continuous improvement.
Excellent communication and teamwork skills.
Willingness to participate in out-of-hours call-outs or standby rotas.

In addition to a competitive salary of £44,000, you’ll benefit from a comprehensive package designed to support your professional and personal development, including:

27 days annual leave plus bank holidays
Increase in salary of 7% once HV Approved on site
Up to 10% matched contribution pension scheme
