Are you an experienced electrician who is looking to take the next step in your career within the water industry? Joining a friendly and supportive team, you'll help look after our sewage treatment works, maintaining the highest standards for customers.

What you'll do

This is a really exciting challenge for an Electrical Technician to be a part of a high performing and dedicated Electrical, Mechanical and Instrumentation (EM&I) team to cover our sewage treatment sites across the Bridgwater and Weston-super-Mare area.

As the Electrical Technician, you will join the EM&I team, carrying out pre-planned and reactive maintenance work, including some small installation projects on our water recycling centres. You will be required to take responsibility for ensuring the effective operation of plant, machinery and equipment, as well as carrying out fault finding, fault diagnosis and fault resolution. Your experience and decision making will be second to none, as you will confidently seek to make continuous improvements across the area.

In this position you will be required to have a can-do attitude and a flexible approach to work, you will be working with a wide variety of products and equipment. Whilst performing in your role, you will have ongoing opportunities to develop your skill set and knowledge, which can include formal/in house training which could lead to progressing into field support and PLC programming.

We are looking for someone who can work flexibly and effectively with minimal supervision. You will also be required to participate in an out-of-hours standby rota covering the larger patch including, Taunton and Yeovil. 

What we'll need

To be successful in this role, we are seeking a time-served Electrical Technician who is competent in three-phase and single-phase power and control systems. It is essential that candidates applying for the role, hold City & Guilds, NVQ Level 3 or a time-served Electrical Apprenticeship. Formal mechanical training (dual-skilled) is preferred but not essential. The successful candidate would also need to have excellent health and safety awareness and IT literacy.

This is a Monday to Friday role, but standby cover will be required for evenings and weekends on a rota basis, which equates to 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.

What you'll receive

Total pension contributions up to 20%. Career progression and professional development opportunities. 25 days' holiday rising to 28 with length of service. The opportunity to buy up to ten days' holiday and sell up to five every year. A healthcare package that allows you to claim back healthcare costs. Life assurance of up to eight times your salary.
