Join us, be part of more.

We’re so much more than an energy company. We’re a family of brands revolutionising how we power the planet. We're energisers. One team of 21,000 colleagues that's energising a greener, fairer future by creating an energy system that doesn’t rely on fossil fuels whilst living our powerful commitment to igniting positive change in our communities. Here, you can find more purpose, more passion, and more potential. That’s why working here is #MoreThanACareer. We do energy differently - we do it all. We make it, store it, move it, sell it, and mend it.

About your team:

At British Gas, our mission is to sell it and mend it.

We’ve been powering the UK’s homes and businesses for over 200 years – but supplying energy is just part of what we do. We’re making the UK greener and more energy efficient, getting closer to Net Zero. By using clever tech like thermostats, heat pumps, solar panels and EV chargers, we’re making it cheaper and easier for our customers to reduce their carbon-footprint.

About your role:

We need Commissioning Electricians to join our team of experienced Field Engineers, supporting our mission to achieve net zero carbon emissions. As part of our team, you’ll be at the forefront of renewable energy, installing and commissioning full electrical systems to power air source heat pumps (ASHP) and hot water cylinders. By working with us, you’ll directly contribute to a greener future, helping homes and businesses reduce their carbon footprints.

Base Salary is £39,797 with uncapped OTE - £43, 776 is a realistic expectation through our fantastic field reward scheme.

As a Commissioning Electrician, you will bring your expertise in domestic electrical installations, including rewires, and a deep understanding of regulations, testing, and certification. You’ll work alongside a lead installer to power heat pumps and hot water cylinders, ensuring that all electrical systems are correctly installed and commissioned from the mains supply.

Here’s what we’re looking for:

• City & Guilds 2365 Parts 1 & 2 (or equivalent), culminating in a Level 3 Technical Certificate including the National Electrotechnical Training (NET) AM2 certificate.
• Evidence of experience working in the electrical industry, with a particular focus on domestic installations.

• City & Guilds 2391.52 and testing experience.
• Proven experience with rewires and the installation of electrical systems within the domestic sector.
• Strong knowledge of electrical regulations, testing, and certification processes.
• The ability to work from design and drawings, delivering bespoke electrical solutions for each project.
• A solution-based approach to problem-solving, ensuring safety and efficiency on every installation.
• Willingness to travel, work with different teams, and occasionally stay overnight, covering a large geographical area.

This role is an exciting opportunity to be part of a team dedicated to helping our customers transition to more sustainable energy solutions. If you’re passionate about making a real difference in the journey to net zero, we’d love to hear from you!
