Job description
Apprentice Metering Engineer

For a complete understanding of this opportunity, and what will be required to be a successful applicant, read on.
Your mission is to help us mend it: Smart meters are the in-home technology opening the door to a greener, more sustainable future. By sending data in real time, they help customers see exactly how much energy theyre using in pounds and pence giving them the confidence to make informed choices and save money.
As a Metering apprentice, youll learn far more than how to install and repair meters. Youll build the skills to explain, reassure and support customers, making sure they understand how to get the very best from their energy use.
At our award-winning academies, youll be supported every step of the way, absorbing expert knowledge, developing hands-on skills and earning recognised qualifications. Working alongside experienced engineers who are there to coach and encourage you, youll soon be visiting homes in your local area, helping people feel comfortable with new technology and more in control of their energy.
We're proud that our commitment to inclusion and developing future talent has been recognised through awards including EDI Initiative of the Year at the 2026 Women in Utilities Awards, being named a Times Top 50 Employer for Gender Equality for the fifth consecutive year, and recognition as one of The Sunday Times Top 100 Apprenticeship Employers .
Its a role where your technical ability matters - but so does your curiosity, your people skills and your desire to make a positive difference.

Once you have completed the full programme and aftercare support (typically at week 76) your salary will increase to £40,133 with bonus and add ons on top.
