Job description

Join us, be part of more.

We’re so much more than an energy company. We’re a family of brands revolutionising how we power the planet. We're energisers. One team of 21,000 colleagues that's energising a greener, fairer future by creating an energy system that doesn’t rely on fossil fuels whilst living our powerful commitment to igniting positive change in our communities. Here, you can find more purpose, more passion, and more potential. That’s why working here is #MoreThanACareer. We do energy differently - we do it all. We make it, store it, move it, sell it, and mend it.

About your team:

At British Gas, our mission is to sell it and mend it.

We’ve been powering the UK’s homes and businesses for over 200 years – but supplying energy is just part of what we do. We’re making the UK greener and more energy efficient, getting closer to Net Zero. By using clever tech like thermostats, heat pumps, solar panels and EV chargers, we’re making it cheaper and easier for our customers to reduce their carbon-footprint.

About your role:

We’re looking for skilled Electricians to join our experienced Field Engineering team, helping ensure customers receive safe, high‑quality electrical work exactly when they need it. Being there for our customers is our priority, and you’ll play a key role in delivering same‑day fixes and high standards of electrical safety in customers’ homes.

Salary & Rewards

Base salary: £43,045

Uncapped OTE: £43,045 plus up to 6.2k London weighting allowance (dependent on area) with uncapped OTE - £57,589 (including LWA) is a realistic expectation through our comprehensive field reward scheme.

The Role

As an Electrician, you’ll use your technical expertise to deliver safe, high‑quality electrical work in domestic properties, including:

• Fault finding and repairs
• Electrical installations and upgrades
• Full and partial rewires
• Ensuring all work is completed safely, compliantly, and right first time

You’ll combine strong technical capability with excellent customer service, diagnosing issues efficiently, achieving first‑time fixes, and providing professional advice to customers where appropriate.

Training & Development

While EV charging and other Net Zero technologies are not a current responsibility of the role, they form an important part of our future. We offer potential opportunities for electricians to train, upskill, and gain additional qualifications in emerging technologies as the role evolves, making this a strong long‑term career opportunity.

What We’re Looking For

• Minimum 2 years’ experience working as a qualified electrician
• City & Guilds 2365 Parts 1 & 2 (or equivalent), culminating in a Level 3 Technical Certificate, including the NET AM2
• City & Guilds 2382 – B.S. 7671 IET Wiring Regulations
• Proven experience working in the electrical industry
• City & Guilds 2391/52 (or equivalent) – highly desirable
• Willingness to undertake potential future training in Net Zero technologies

Why should you apply?

We’re not a perfect place – but we’re a people place. Our priority is supporting all of the different realities our people face. Life is about so much more than work. We get it. That’s why we’ve designed our total rewards to give you the flexibility to choose what you need, when you need it, making sure that you and your family are supported not only financially, but physically and emotionally too.

If you're full of energy, fired up about sustainability, and ready to craft not only a better tomorrow, but a better you, then come and find your purpose in a team where your voice matters, your growth is non-negotiable, and your ambitions are our priority.

Help us, help you. We would love for you to share any information about yourself throughout our recruitment process so that we can better understand you and help shape your journey.
