Qualifying Supervisor | Electrical Manager | Contracts Manager | In-House Division Setup

Job Title: Electrical Qualifying Supervisor / Contracts Manager

Location: Enfield (Office-based with local site coverage)

Salary: £55,000 - £60,000 per annum + Performance Bonus

Package: Executive Car Allowance (£5,000-£6,000) or Company Vehicle, Private Healthcare, Pension Scheme

Career Trajectory: Direct, defined progression route into a Divisional Director role as the department scales

Sector: Property Services / Building Services / Electrical Compliance

Are you a high-performing Qualifying Supervisor (QS), Senior Electrical Supervisor, or Electrical Project Manager looking to step up into full departmental ownership and earn a Director title

We are recruiting a technically sharp, ambitious Electrical Qualifying Supervisor / Contracts Manager to lead a major strategic transition for an established property services business in Enfield: bringing electrical testing, inspection, and remedial compliance fully in-house.

Currently relying on third-party contractors, our client is looking for a technical leader to build, recruit, and manage a direct-labour electrical team. Because you will be spearheading this new division from the ground up, this role offers a genuine Director Designate path—meaning your successful expansion of the team directly unlocks a seat at the executive table as Divisional Director.

Why Apply for This Role

Step Up to Contracts Manager / Director: Perfect progression opportunity for an ambitious QS or Senior Supervisor ready to run their own division.

Full Departmental Ownership: Build, recruit, and shape an in-house electrical team from scratch rather than just managing someone else's existing setup.

Competitive Package: £55,000 - £60,000 base salary + car allowance/vehicle + bonus scheme linked to departmental growth.

Stable Market Pipeline: Established client base providing immediate, consistent work streams across the London and South East region.

Key Responsibilities:

• Technical Lead & QS Sign-Off: Act as the technical lead / Qualifying Supervisor ensuring all electrical testing, EICRs, installations, and remedial works comply with BS 7671 (18th Edition) regulations and NICEIC/NAPIT guidelines.
• In-House Division Setup: Lead the operational transition of electrical compliance works from external contractors to a high-performing internal direct team.
• Team Recruitment & Management: Recruit, mentor, and schedule direct electricians and field engineers, establishing productivity benchmarks and quality control protocols.
• Commercial & Financial Control: Oversee job pricing, labor allocation, material procurement, and contract margins to drive division profitability.
• Strategic Growth: Partner directly with senior business leaders to achieve growth milestones, expanding the department's capacity and stepping into a Divisional Director role.

Candidate Profile & Requirements:

• Technical Mastery: Time-served qualified electrician holding NVQ Level 3 (or equivalent), 18th Edition Wiring Regulations, and 2391 / 2394 / 2395 Inspection & Testing certification.
• NICEIC / NAPIT QS Status: Active or recent Qualifying Supervisor (QS) status is highly desirable.
• Supervisory / Management Experience: Proven track record as a Qualifying Supervisor, Senior Electrical Supervisor, Project Manager, or Contracts Manager directing field electricians.
• In-House Delivery Focus: Hands-on understanding of electrical compliance, EICR turnarounds, schedule of rates (SOR), and direct workforce management.
• Location: Based within a practical daily commute of Enfield (North London / Hertfordshire border).
