Are you a qualified Electrician looking for a stable, high-quality work-life balance within a prestigious educational environment?

We are seeking a skilled Building Services Maintenance Electrician to join our dedicated Estates Team. Unlike sub-contractor roles, this is a direct position with my client, offering long-term job security, a variety of technical challenges, and an industry-leading benefits package.

You will be responsible for ensuring our campus remains safe, compliant, and operational. Your day-to-day will involve:

Planned Preventative Maintenance (PPM): Testing and inspecting emergency lighting, fire alarms, and distribution boards.

Reactive Repairs: Fault-finding and fixing electrical issues across academic buildings, laboratories, and student residences.

Minor Installations: Assisting with small-scale project works and upgrades.

Compliance: Ensuring all work meets 18th Edition (BS 7671) standards and health and safety regulations.

What's in it for you?

We pride ourselves on being one of the best employers in the region. Our benefits go far beyond the base salary:

Generous Annual Leave: Enjoy a significantly higher holiday allowance than the private sector, plus additional university closure days and bank holidays.

Elite Pension Scheme: Access to a highly competitive, employer-contributed pension plan.

Work-Life Balance: Standard Monday-Friday hours with clear boundaries.

Call-Out & Overtime: Enhance your earnings with a on-call rota of 1 in 4 with £150 stand by and overtime opportunities.

Growth: We invest in our people. You will receive ongoing training and development, including specialized certifications (e.g., EV charging, HV switching) to keep your skills sharp.

What We're Looking For

Qualified Electrician: Level 3 NVQ (or equivalent) and 18th Edition IET Wiring Regulations.

Experience: Proven background in commercial or building services maintenance.

Testing & Inspection: City & Guilds 2391 (or 2394/5) is highly desirable.

Adaptability: Comfortable working in a diverse environment, from historic buildings to state-of-the-art research facilities.

Team Player: A positive attitude and the ability to communicate effectively with staff and students.
