Bridgwater, Somerset, United Kingdom Wessex Water Full time

Are you an experienced electrician looking to take the next step in your career with a leading water company?



This exciting opportunity is with Wessex Water, one of the top-performing water and sewerage companies in England and Wales, serving 2.9 million people across the South West.



As an Electrical Maintenance Specialist, you will be part of a high-performing and dedicated Electrical, Mechanical and Instrumentation (EM&I) team, covering our sewage treatment sites across the Bridgwater and Weston-super-Mare area.



Your key responsibilities will include carrying out pre-planned and reactive maintenance work, including small installation projects on our water recycling centres. You will be responsible for ensuring the effective operation of plant, machinery, and equipment, as well as fault finding, diagnosis, and resolution.



You will be required to have a can-do attitude and a flexible approach to work, working with a wide variety of products and equipment. Ongoing opportunities will be available for developing your skill set and knowledge, including formal/in-house training, which could lead to progressing into field support and PLC programming.



To be successful in this role, you will need to be a time-served Electrical Technician, competent in three-phase and single-phase power and control systems. City & Guilds, NVQ Level 3, or a time-served Electrical Apprenticeship is essential. Formal mechanical training (dual-skilled) is preferred but not essential.



Excellent health and safety awareness and IT literacy are also required. You will need to hold a valid UK driving licence, as regular travel around various sites within our region will be necessary.



This is a Monday to Friday role, but standby cover will be required for evenings and weekends on a rota basis, with an availability payment of around £1,950 per year, plus a performance bonus of up to 5% of your salary and overtime available.



A company van and all the tools and training you will need to complete your role will be provided.
