Your New Role:
In this key role, you'll help us deliver high-quality electrical services across our housing stock and commercial properties - with the ambition to achieve top-tier performance. We seek the best talent from the widest pool of people as diversity and inclusion is the key to our success.
About the role:
As a Qualifying Supervisor (Electrical), you'll be responsible for the supervision and support of electrical trade operatives and subcontractors. You'll allocate work, monitor productivity, and ensure that all tasks meet safety regulations, customer expectations, and legislative standards.

Planned works: Electrical installations for newly refurbished kitchens and bathrooms.
Voids: Repairs, rewires, testing, and general electrical upgrades in empty properties before re-letting.
Responsive maintenance: Electrical repairs, diagnostics, and ongoing maintenance across our housing stock.
