Bristol, United Kingdom Bristol City Council Full time

**Full time, Permanent**

We are looking for a highly motivated individual, ideally with experience in the highway electrical industry, to join our Highway Electrical Asset Team as a Highway Electrical Technician within the Delivery Team.

**About the Role**

The Highway Electrical Asset Team is responsible for the management and maintenance of all on-street highway electrical assets owned by Bristol City Council. These include:

- Street lighting
- Illuminated Signs/Bollards
- CCTV
- Bus shelters
- Electric vehicle (EV) charging points
- Trader and events power supplies
- And much more

In this role, you'll help keep our spectacular waterfront city moving and connected. This is a fantastic opportunity for someone looking to develop their electrical and lighting skills in a progressive and fast-moving sector.

As a Highway Electrical Technician, you'll be responsible for overseeing, coordinating, and checking the delivery of various electrical projects across the city. This includes:

- Raising and managing work orders via the term maintenance contractor
- Supporting and overseeing the day-to-day delivery of services, ranging from small-scale lighting schemes to large, complex electrical projects
- Providing technical guidance to non-technical team members and stakeholders

The role combines both office-based duties and regular on-site operations. A full UK driving licence is essential, as you'll be expected to travel to various locations across the city and carry PPE and hand tools.

**About the Service**

The Highway Maintenance Group is part of Bristol’s Transport Service and plays a vital role in maintaining and improving our city’s transport infrastructure. The group supports a wide range of initiatives, delivers its own work programmes, and offers technical expertise to internal and external partners.

The Highways Maintenance Service is made up of five teams:

- Area Highways Team
- Strategic Highways Team
- Bridges and Structures Team
- Highway Electrical Assets Team
- Assets and Contracts Team

Each team is led by a dedicated Team Manager. Together, we are shaping a safe, efficient, and sustainable city.
