• Previous experience in electrical maintenance, facilities management, industrial or commercial environments.
• Strong electrical fault-finding and diagnostic skills.
• A good understanding of electrical safety, compliance and safe systems of work.
• A professional approach, good communication skills and the ability to manage your workload.

Additional qualifications such as PAT Testing, ECS Gold Card or IPAF would be advantageous.

What's in it for you?

Alongside your salary, you'll benefit from:

• Monday to Friday working, giving you a consistent weekday routine.

• Access to Sodexo's employee benefits and discount schemes.
• 24-hour virtual GP service.
