Domestic electrics within an hour of home, and the weekend’s yours again.
No quotes to chase, no on-call phone, no motorway first thing every morning. Just steady install work booked months ahead, a van on the drive, and a Friday night that actually stays Friday night.
This one’s a directly employed role with an established air conditioning company that’s building its own local install teams across England. Bristol is one of the patches being filled now.
The job is domestic electrics in a two-person crew. The AC engineer fits the units, and the electrician sorts the supplies, isolators and controls.
- No site work, no new builds, no staying away
- Every job within about an hour of home
- Diary booked months ahead, so no chasing the next job and no gaps between contracts
- Monday to Friday, with weekends not expected (paid at a premium if one comes up)
It won’t suit everyone. If variety and big commercial jobs are what keep you going, this probably isn’t it. But for anyone who’d like a steady wage, a van, paid holiday and their evenings back, it’s a lot less of a compromise than people expect.
- £42,000 to £48,000 depending on experience
- Company van with fuel card and personal use
- Overtime paid daily beyond nine hours on site
- Travel paid beyond the first 15 minutes each way
- 23 days holiday plus bank holidays
- Tools and company phone provided
- Permanent and PAYE
- 18th Edition
- NVQ Level 3 and AM2
- Genuine domestic installation experience
- Full UK driving licence, and happy to complete a DBS check since the work is in occupied homes
2391 is a bonus, not a must. Any AC exposure helps but isn’t required.
