• Appropriate technical qualifications (e.g., City & Guilds 2365, BTEC, NVQ Level 3).
• BS7671 18th Edition Wiring Regulations (training available if only 17th Edition).

• Ability to work at heights and independently.
• Good project management skills and stakeholder communication.

What we offer: Flexibility, career development, benefits, and support, including a pension, holidays, flexible benefits, discounts, community involvement days, and a company van with fuel card and tools.

We value diversity and are committed to inclusion. We encourage applications from all qualified candidates and offer support for accessibility needs during recruitment.
