Leeds, United Kingdom National Grid Full time

**Join National Grid and start a career in the electricity industry?**

We’re looking for a practically skilled, can-do individual to join our team as a Maintenance Assistant on high-voltage plant and equipment. No two days are the same — you’ll be out in the field, travelling between substations in a company electric vehicle, inspecting and maintaining the equipment that keeps the UK’s power flowing. From spotting early signs of wear to providing access on sites for 3rd party contractors. You’ll be part of a team that keeps things running safely and efficiently, however you’ll mainly work by yourself focussing on your own responsibilities and productivity. You’ll live within 30 minutes travel of Skelton Grange, Leeds.

This is a role for people who like to work outdoors, think on their feet, and take pride in doing the job right. You’ll follow digital work instructions on an iPad, use tools with confidence, and know how to spot when something’s not quite right. It can be repetitive, but always important. We’ll give you everything you need — full training, tools and PPE, and the support to build a long-term career in the energy sector. All you need to bring is practical know-how, reliability, and a willingness to learn.

**Requirements**:

- Ideally worked in an operational environment, have practical skills and can follow digital work instructions.
- Can work independently to targets and deadlines.
- Keen eye for detail
- You can use a laptop and iPad
- Full UK driving licence.

**Desirable**
- Mechanical/electrical or general engineering experience.

**Pay and Benefits**:

- A starting salary of £35,194 to £37,154 pa including allowance depending on experience + Benefits Package
- 37 Hours - Monday to Friday, Days only (Winter 36 hrs / Summer 38 hrs - 4 day working pattern).
- Generous contributory pension scheme totalling up to 18%.
- 26 days annual leave plus 8 statutory days.
