  • Travel nationwide as required, using a company-provided van

  • Compile and submit professional reports including photos, survey data, and recommendations

  • Ensure designs comply with industry regulations and safety standards

Requirements

    • Level 3 Testing & Inspection (C&G 2391, 2394/2395)

    • Level 4 Design & Verification (C&G 2396 or EAL) - desirable

    • Solar qualification (C&G, EAL, or BPEC) - advantageous

  • Proficient in design software (e.g., Trimble, ElectricalOM)

  • Excellent IT and report-writing skills

  • Full UK driving licence (over 25 for insurance purposes)

  • Self-motivated and organised, able to manage workload and travel independently

Why Apply?

This is a fantastic role for a qualified electrical professional ready to take the next step in their career, working at the forefront of the UK's clean energy transformation. Join a supportive team driving real environmental impact through cutting-edge design and engineering.
