Job description

Site Supervisor (Electrical) 33kV Substations

Location: North Scotland (SSE Locations)
Salary: £45,000 - £50,000 + Company Van & Fuel Card
Job Type: Full-Time, Permanent
Start Date: Immediate

Are you a Site Supervisor who enjoys being out on site rather than stuck in an office?

We're looking for an experienced Electrical Site Supervisor to join a growing team delivering work across a long-term 33kV SSE private networks framework.

This isn't a static role. You'll typically spend around three months on each project before moving to the next site, so you'll need to be comfortable travelling throughout Scotland. In return, you'll join a business with a strong pipeline of work, excellent job security and the opportunity to work on major HV infrastructure projects.

The Role

As Site Supervisor, you'll be responsible for the safe and efficient delivery of electrical works on substation projects, ensuring work is completed to programme, to specification and in line with all health & safety requirements.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Supervising site teams and subcontractors
• Coordinating day-to-day site activities
• Ensuring works are carried out safely and to the required quality standards
• Conducting site briefings and maintaining health & safety compliance
• Liaising with Project Managers, Engineers and client representatives
• Supporting the successful delivery of 11kV and 33kV substation projects

What We're Looking For

You'll ideally have experience supervising electrical works within the power or utilities sector and be confident managing teams on live infrastructure projects.

You'll have:

• Previous experience as a Site Supervisor
• Electrical experience within 11kV or 33kV substations
• Experience working on SSE or SPEN projects is highly desirable
• SSSTS qualification (essential)
• Full UK Driving Licence
• Willingness to travel and work on projects across Scotland

Already hold an SSE CAT3 Authorisation? Even better. If not, full training and accreditation will be provided.

If you're an experienced Electrical Site Supervisor with a background in 11kV or 33kV substations, and you're looking for a role with genuine long-term security, we'd love to hear from you.
