We're looking for an experienced Electrician to join our East Sussex team.

Up to £50,000 per annum

Guaranteed minimum of 39 hours with overtime potentially available

Pass on your skills and experience to our future engineers through supporting our engineering apprentices.

You'll be one of a team of engineers who maintains and repairs a modern and varied fleet of vehicles so our fantastic customers can travel safely and comfortably every day to healthcare and employment, to shopping and leisure, and to see friends and family.

Aside from the satisfaction of being a key worker in your community, there's loads of reasons for you to join the Stagecoach South East team...

Great benefitsincluding a generous company pension scheme, 34 days Holiday (including bank holidays), free financial education, and affordable loans, and finally a range of money-saving opportunities including discounts on holidays and retail, cinema outings, dental insurance, vehicle breakdown cover and hotels and attractions.

Free travelfor you and a companion on our buses – so on your days off you can be off shopping without worrying about parking the car or heading off for a day in town or the countryside without worrying about the cost of fuel or parking.

Training– a dedicated high level training programme to reinforce your existing skills and give an opportunity to gain a qualification in another trade.

Varied work– interestingly it's not all depot-based work at our Eastbourne and Hastings Depots...you could well find yourself out and about dealing with vehicle issues on the road, so it won't always be the same four walls you're looking at. And as one of the UK's leading transport operators we're investing heavily in electric vehicles and depot infrastructure, so there's plenty to keep you interested.

Plenty of job securityfrom being a key worker at the heart of our communities, where we always need great people servicing and maintaining our fleet of vehicles, be they Alexander Dennis, Scania, or Optare

A safe environment– we provide all PPE and specialist equipment so no need to worry about being safe and protected or having the right kit for the job.

Career developmentthrough developing your technical skills on future hybrid and electric vehicles, and career progression to management and directorship – a good number of our Engineering Directors started their career with us as mechanics and fitters.

Secondment opportunitiesto work elsewhere in the business – either on big events like Silverstone and Cheltenham Festival, or into our head office support functions.

An employee assistance programmeto support health and wellbeing through a confidential service available 24 hours a day which provides specialist guidance and assistance on a range of personal and work-related issues, from dealing with stress and anxiety to managing financial, marital, or legal issues. Face-to-face counselling sessions are also offered, alongside telephone and online support.

A great working environmentwith loads of opportunity to make new friends from a bunch of great workmates, managers who work hard to create great places to work, and employee networks building inclusive environments for women, veterans, carers, multicultural and LGBTQ+ colleagues.

The recruitment process is simple – you apply with your CV, we'll have a good read then get you in for an interview and give you a tour of the depot, and that's it!

There are a few of things we need from you:

You need to have an Electrical engineering background with a vehicular focus – car, van, bus, HGV / LGV, haulage, automotive, plant, rail, farm – if it moves and has electrical systems, it's good experience!

You need to want to deliver high standards of engineering proactive maintenance and repair.

So, if that's you, and you like what we're offering, then we want to hear from you!
