Regional Maintenance Electrician

THE ROLE

This is a regional role covering service calls at customer sites to carry out a mix of qualified electrical work and general maintenance. You’ll also deliver Facilities Management services including testing, repairs and small installation works. When regional demand is low, you’ll be based in the Service Centre, supporting the team on in-yard repairs and installation projects. This role includes flexibility in working hours, including early/late starts, occasional weekend work, travel across the region using a company van and on the rare occasion, an overnight stay.
