Job description

If you're after a job where you can coast, this isn't it. But if you like the idea of making a difference one inspection at a time - with a side order of modern kit, proper pay, and a team that actually has your back - then you know what to do.

Qualifications

• An NVQ Level 3 (or equivalent) in Electrical Installation
• 18th Edition qualified - you know your regs inside out
• Inspection & Testing qualification: City & Guilds 2391, 2394/2395, 2391-52 or EAL equivalent
• Experience working in social housing (or similar)
• Organised, self‑motivated, detail‑focused (your mates say "bit of a perfectionist")
• Good communicator who doesn't glaze people over with technical jargon
• Someone who treats health & safety as gospel, not a suggestion

ECS Group is an Equal Opportunity Employer. We value diversity and are committed to creating an inclusive environment for all employees.

Compensation and Benefits

A salary of £36,000 to £40,000 DOE, plus benefits and a company vehicle (your mobile HQ).

What you'll actually be doing (minus the fluff)

• Carrying out Electrical Installation Condition Reports (EICRs) - the proper, detailed kind
• Spotting and fixing C1 and C2 faults on site (because "just flagging it" isn't your style)
• Installing and issuing Electrical Installation Certificates (EICs) when required
• Keeping it all above board with the regs (18th Edition is your bedtime reading, right?)
• Managing your own workload like a pro, but still being part of the wider crew
• Travelling up to an hour to reach different sites when needed

You get to say "I keep thousands safe" at parties, which is cooler than it sounds. You'll work on social housing and public sector projects that actually matter. You'll have up‑to‑date kit that does the hard graft for you (no stone‑age testers here). Pay's competitive, the team's solid, and there's room to grow without drowning in buzzwords.
