How you’ll power our business as a Hazardous Area Electrician

As a Hazardous Area Electrician with Flogas, you’ll help install, maintain, inspect and test Liquid Petroleum Gas and Liquid Natural Gas plants throughout the UK. The work’s varied. One day you might be assembling or installing LPG vaporizers, pump skid units and package boiler houses for our growing range of business customers, from distilleries to national retail chains.

Manage and balance time effectively between office‑based coordination tasks and site‑based activities, typically split 50/50.

Liaise confidently with wholesalers and manufacturers to source, order, and coordinate delivery of electrical materials and equipment.

Oversee and support the delivery of bespoke LPG refuelling system builds at the company’s manufacturing facility in Staveley, Derbyshire, assisting with hands‑on work where required.

Facilitate the installation of new customer LPG and LNG plants across the UK, ensuring that projects are properly resourced and progressing to specification, with occasional hands‑on input when necessary.
