Job description

£36,729 per annum + Excellent Corporate Benefits Package

We’re recruiting for a driven and dedicated Electrician to join our FM team at HMP Ashfield, an adult male sex offender prison based in the village of Pucklechurch in South Gloucestershire.

As the FM Electrician, you will carry out fault finding and defect rectification to items of electrical plant and equipment, pre-planned maintenance of items of electrical plant and equipment, and installation of new plant and apparatus.

You will need to document inspection findings and pursue fault rectifications. You will work as part of a close-knit team; however, you will be expected to work independently at times. This role is ideally suited to someone starting their Electrician career or someone looking to step away from vast travel and be based on site full time.

It is important to note that working in such a secure environment can be challenging at times. In return, we can offer a supportive and collaborative environment that respects work/life balance and contributes to the delivery of vital public services in the UK. There will also be a need to participate in the on-call roster, which currently sits around 1 in 8. The standard working week is Monday to Friday from 08:00 am to 16:30; however, there will be a requirement for out-of-hours work and weekend work required to meet business needs.

What you’ll need to do the job

You will need a C & G Electrical Certificate or other recognised electrical trade qualification, and you must have served a recognised trade apprenticeship and qualified to BS7671 (Current Edition of the IEE Regulations).

Finally, you will have at least 5 years associated trade experience post-apprenticeship and must be prepared to undertake training courses to expand on your technical abilities if required by the business.

• Pension – up to 6%
• Employee Assistance Programme
• Chance to contribute to innovation in the Justice sector
