What if you could be part of a team that supports critical operations and contributes to complex, meaningful projects every day while continuing to develop your expertise in a highly regulated and rewarding environment?

This is your opportunity to join a well-established and collaborative maintenance team where your contribution matters. You’ll play a vital role in keeping essential systems running safely and efficiently, supporting not only day-to-day operations but also a wide range of decommissioning activities. If you’re motivated, hands-on, and enjoy solving technical challenges, this role offers both stability and variety in equal measure.

What Will You Be Doing

As an Electrical Technician, you’ll be at the forefront of ensuring electrical systems are maintained, reliable, and compliant. Working closely with your team and wider site operations, you’ll deliver both planned and reactive maintenance, ensuring work is completed safely, efficiently, and to a high standard.

You’ll be trusted to interpret maintenance requirements, contribute to corrective actions, and support installation activities in line with established regulations and designs. This is a role where no two days are the same requiring a proactive mindset and a strong commitment to teamwork and safety.

• Deliver routine and preventative maintenance activities as guided by your Team Leader
• Respond to breakdowns and carry out corrective work to minimise downtime
• Support electrical installations in line with IET Wiring Regulations and approved designs
• Collaborate effectively with colleagues and stakeholders to ensure safe, timely delivery of work
