Job Description

Electrical Technician
 
If you would rather be outdoors and hands-on than stuck behind a desk, this is the role for you.
 
This is an Electrical Technician role with a growing renewable energy business near Ely, on a days-only four-on, four-off shift pattern.
 
As an Electrical Technician you will maintain and improve the electrical systems that keep a growing renewable energy operation running safely and efficiently, working on the plants that turn organic waste into clean energy. It is a highly varied, hands-on role, from planned preventative maintenance and fault-finding through to installations, testing, inspections and breakdown response. Be clear on one thing: this is not a desk job. Up to 90% of your time will be spent outdoors across operational plant areas, often at height and in all weathers. If you are a practical, self-motivated Electrical Technician who enjoys problem-solving and wants your skills to count towards a more sustainable future, this role delivers exactly that, on a days-only pattern with real time off.
