Job description

Cloud Electrical is a value‑led business that prioritises trust, loyalty, and quality delivery. We pride ourselves on long‑term relationships with clients and our team, and we are deliberate about bringing the right individuals into the business, not just filling roles.

Our clients trust us because we are quality driven, commercially fair, and solutions focused. We do not create problems on projects; we solve them. This mindset runs through our day‑to‑day operations: anticipating issues early, coordinating properly, and making projects run smoother and more efficiently for everyone involved.

As the business grows, the right person will grow with it. Cloud Electrical is committed to recognising and rewarding contribution, loyalty, and leadership, not just job titles. This role offers a genuine opportunity to become part of the long‑term growth of the business and to play a meaningful role in shaping how projects are delivered and how the company develops.

Role Overview

We are looking for an experienced and motivated Electrical Site Supervisor to oversee the day‑to‑day delivery of electrical installations across our project portfolio. You will be the key point of contact on site, responsible for managing operatives, ensuring quality workmanship, maintaining programme, and upholding our health and safety standards.

This is a hands‑on supervisory role. You will be expected to lead by example, support your team technically, and represent Cloud Electrical professionally with clients, main contractors, and other trades. Above all, we want someone who finds ways to make things work, not reasons why they cannot.

Key Responsibilities

Site Management & Delivery

• Supervise and coordinate all electrical installation works on site, ensuring delivery to programme, specification, and budget.
• Manage and direct a team of electricians and apprentices, allocating tasks and monitoring daily output.
• Liaise with the main contractor, client, and other trades to coordinate works and resolve site issues promptly.
• Ensure all works are completed in accordance with drawings, specifications, and current regulations (BS 7671).

Health, Safety & Compliance

• Enforce company health and safety policies on site at all times.
• Carry out and review risk assessments and method statements (RAMS) prior to works commencing.
• Conduct toolbox talks and inductions for site operatives.
• Maintain accurate records of site inspections, near‑misses, and incidents.
• Ensure all operatives hold valid CSCS/ECS cards and relevant certifications.

Quality & Technical Oversight

• Ensure all installations meet the required quality standards and are completed to a high standard of finish.
• Carry out or oversee periodic inspection and testing as required.
• Review and interpret technical drawings, schematics, and specifications.
• Identify and flag design queries, variations, and potential programme impacts to the project manager.

Commercial Awareness

• Understand the scope of works and flag any items that are outside contract scope.
• Support the project manager with accurate labour allocation records, materials reconciliation, and variation records.
• Minimise waste and support efficient use of materials and labour on site.

Qualifications & Experience

Essential

• Fully qualified electrician, City & Guilds 2360/2365 or NVQ Level 3 in Electrical Installations.
• 18th Edition (BS 7671) Wiring Regulations, current certification required.
• ECS/CSCS Gold Card or above.
• Minimum 3 years’ experience in a supervisory or leading hand role on commercial projects.
• Proven ability to manage a team of 4+ operatives on live construction sites.
• Confident reading and interpreting electrical drawings and specifications.
• Strong communication skills and ability to represent the company professionally.

Desirable

• City & Guilds 2391 Inspection & Testing (or equivalent).
• SMSTS or SSSTS site management safety certificate.
• Experience across a range of sectors: industrial, retail, residential, or public sector.
• First Aid at Work certificate.
• Integrated building systems knowledge (data, fire alarm coordination, security, mechanical interfaces).

Skills & Attributes

• Solutions‑focused mindset, seeing a challenge as something to solve, not a reason to stop.
• Natural leader, able to motivate and direct a team while maintaining a positive site culture.
• Highly organised with the ability to manage multiple priorities simultaneously.
• Professional, reliable, and confident representing Cloud Electrical at all levels.
• Comfortable working in fast‑paced environments with shifting demands.
• Committed to quality, safety, and continuous improvement.

What We Offer

• Competitive salary based on experience.
• Overtime opportunities as the project demands.
• Ongoing training and professional development.
• Contribution, loyalty, and leadership recognised and rewarded, not just job titles.
• A stable business with a consistent pipeline, built on 25+ years of trusted client relationships.
• A genuine long‑term opportunity, grow with the business, not just in it.
• Company vehicle or travel allowance (role dependent).
