Electrician

Our client is looking for 2 gangs of 2. One of the gang needs to be based close to Bingley, a BD16 post code. The other gang can be based outside of London. One from the Bingley gang will have an opportunity to become a Electrical QS. 

About the Role,

Our client’s electricians work in small, well supported teams across the UK, carrying out enabling works so that vending and automated equipment can be installed for a wide range of high profile clients.

The work is often in live retail, commercial and public environments, so attention to detail, safety and professionalism matter. You’ll be part of a mobile workforce, travelling to sites around the UK and working with installation and technical teams to complete projects safely, efficiently and to specification. A company vehicle, tools and testing equipment are provided.

A route into the office,

As the team grows, there’s an opportunity for the right person to move into a working Electrical QS role, and later into an office based position in Bingley. This is a progression route for someone who shows they’re able to take it on, so it’s a good fit if you’d like to move off the tools in time.
