Are you a fully qualified Electrician looking to move off the tools and into education?

Do you want to move into a rewarding role where you can support apprentices, pass on your knowledge, and help develop the next generation of Electrical professionals?

Join a leading College in the North East with excellent facilities, a strong Electrical provision, and a fantastic reputation for developing both learners and staff. With continued growth across apprenticeships, full‑time programmes, and advanced manufacturing, this is a great opportunity to build a long‑term career within education.

• Use digital systems including Microsoft Teams and electronic learning platforms.
• Flexible 37‑hour working week, typically around 8:30 am – 5:00 pm with an earlier Friday finish.
• Mileage allowance paid for site visits.
• Full assessor training provided for candidates moving from industry.
• Long‑term progression opportunities, including potential future movement into lecturing.

The person:

• Fully qualified Electrician.
• Level 3 Electrical qualification or Gold Card.
• 18th Edition required.
• 2391 Inspection & Testing desirable.
• Solar PV, Battery Storage, EV Charging, AV, or micro‑renewables experience advantageous.
• Strong all‑round Electrical background, ideally across commercial or industrial environments.
• Previous assessing experience desirable but not essential.
• Good IT skills and confidence using Microsoft systems.
• Full UK driving licence and own vehicle required.
