It all matters

Deliver exceptional work with extraordinary purpose

You won’t find an opportunity like this anywhere else. As a key member of our Engineering team, you’ll play a key role in everything from the design and planning of electrical works, through to installation, commissioning and reporting. The work is incredibly varied – from LV distribution to lighting, and from containment systems to fire alarms and air conditioning. What’s more, you’ll get to do it at home and overseas, in diplomatic missions for the UK and friendly governments. You can look forward to worldwide travel. Whether you’re rewiring a Japanese embassy for solar panels, or installing new ceiling roses in a high commission in Nigeria, you’ll lead multi-skilled teams. And whether you’re helping to deliver a new build, office refurbishment, vital upgrade or essential maintenance, you’ll do it all to the highest standards of safety and customer satisfaction. You’ll contribute to project costings, technical surveys, problem solving and advisory services. Most importantly, you’ll be helping to keep people safe.

Use all your abilities like you’ve never used them before

To join our team, you’ll need to be able to spend up to 22 weeks a year on overseas installations, Individual projects can last up to eight weeks.

Working knowledge of BS 7671: 2018 is essential, and you should have NVQ Level 3 in electrical installations, plus City & Guilds 2391 Test and Inspection – or equivalent qualifications. It’s the personal qualities you bring that will really set you apart – from your commitment to exceptional standards of quality, safety and customer satisfaction, through to your flexible approach and flair for communicating complex technical issues clearly to people who don’t share your expert knowledge. In return, you can look forward to unparalleled opportunities for personal and professional growth.

Build your skills in locations around the globe
