Ready for Your Next Opportunity?

If you're an experienced electrician looking for a role where you'll be valued, supported and rewarded, we'd love to hear from you. Join a team that invests in its people, provides the right tools for the job, and offers the stability and work-life balance you deserve.

Yorkshire Housing own and manage nearly 20,000 homes (and counting) across Yorkshire and our mission is to make it possible for current and future tenants to live in a place they’re proud to call home.

Our service doesn’t stop once the keys are in the door, and as an Electrician, you’ll play a key role in making sure our tenants feel safe, valued and proud to live in a YH home from day one. It’s a role that you can go home from knowing you’ve made a difference, with customers always at the heart!

What you’ll be doing

You’ll undertake all electrical workstreams which include Fixed wire testing (EICR’s), associated remedials, electrical repairs & alterations to existing fittings and fixtures, rewiring partial or full properties, including inspection and testing and the provision of certification and reporting on the condition of electrical components and equipment, planned installs such as lighting upgrades and heating upgrades. This will take place in both in empty and occupied properties.

You’ll be using your own personal initiative, problem-solving any smaller issues on-site, but also be working as a key player in a bigger team. Also, you’ll work closely with other trades, as well as administrators and suppliers. You’ll be the face of Yorkshire Housing to many of our tenants. So, respectful, warm and professional communication is a key part of this role.

Sounds good? Here’s what we need from you…

If you’re passionate about creating trust with our customers and doing the right thing, not the easy thing, then this role sounds perfect for you. We’re a future-focused, innovative housing provider with big plans for growth and developing our customer offer.

We’re also looking for someone with the right experience in a domestic setting and the relevant qualifications. You’ll have City & Guilds Level 3 (or recognised equivalent qualification), City & Guilds 2382 (18th edition), NVQ in Electro technical Services & AM2 Certification and 2391-51 Periodic Inspection and Testing of Electrical Installations Level 3 (or recognised equivalent or greater qualification)

You'll also need a valid UK driving licence. This is a mobile role, so you'll be travelling around Yorkshire, however we'll try to allocate work locations based around your home location. Please see the attached role profile for more info.

So, now you’re really interested?

At YH, we’re building a work environment that’s inclusive as well as diverse, where everyone can be themselves. Difference is what makes us stronger, so we welcome and encourage candidates from all backgrounds.

The fine print

If you are applying for this role internally you must inform your current line manager (it’s the right thing to do!). If a competitive candidate pool is identified, we reserve the right to close the role early, therefore we would encourage you to submit your application as soon as possible. You'll be based across Yorkshire, so please ensure your application and CV has an up to date postcode on!
