What you’ll actually be doing (cutting through the jargon):
- Running full-scale inspections and tests on commercial and industrial fixed wiring and switchgear—and compiling EICRs that actually matter

- Using testing gear and reporting software like a pro—precision meets efficiency
- Working independently, adapting daily, and keeping your cool—because each site throws its own challenges
- Staying on top of EICR standards (BS 7671, IET wiring regs, City & Guilds credentials) to keep everything above board
What we expect from you:
- A minimum of around three years of similar experience—Test & Inspect, remedial repairs, or compliance‑heavy work all count
- The proper qualifications: City & Guilds 2391‑52 (or equivalent), NVQ Level 3, 18th Edition certificate—proof you know what you’re doing
- A full UK driving licence—van not for decoration, but your mobile HQ
- You’re detail‑focused, self‑starting, and professional—always thinking “what might trip us up tomorrow?”
What’s in it for you:
- A £3,000 new starter bonus
- £38K base, with bonuses driving you toward c.£60k OTE
- A company van/mobile base
- Pension, life assurance and virtual GP access
- Vivup access, giving you discounts on holidays, fitness, shopping, tech—benefits that actually land where it counts
- The latest tools and tech to make inspections smoother—not stodgy or outdated
- A mature workplace—zero office politics, plenty of respect, chances to grow, and permanent roles that don’t ghost you
