Valoris Group is recruiting on behalf of our client, an established family-run heating, cooling and renewable energy business based in Fareham.

This vacancy combines three areas the business already operates heavily in: electrical works, heat pumps and air conditioning. They need a technically capable electrician who can work confidently around modern heating and cooling systems rather than someone limited to conventional electrical installation work.
