As a MEICA (Mechanical, Electrical, Instrumentation, Control and Automation) Electrician, your work will be essential in ensuring the efficient functioning of critical flood defences. In addition to electrical tasks, you will also be involved in operating these defences when the need arises. This role gives you hands-on responsibility, repairing, and improving electrical and control-system infrastructure.

- Operational role during trials/flood defence operations.
Responding to incidents is a central part of what we do.

This attracts additional payment, and full training, and alternative working arrangements will be available to support you with your incident role.
