- Maintenance & Breakdowns: Execute planned preventative maintenance (PPM) schedules and respond to reactive component-level faults (rectifiers, inverted modules, cooling pumps, and payment terminals).
- Compliance: Complete Electrical Installation Certificates (EICR) and guarantee strict adherence to BS7671 (18th Edition) and DNO safety guidelines.
- Qualifications (Essential): NVQ Level 3 Electrical Installation & AM2 (or equivalent). City & Guilds 18th Edition Wiring Regulations (BS7671:2018). City & Guilds 2391 Inspection and Testing (or 2394/2395). Full UK Driving Licence with clean history.

Direct experience with major DC charger systems (e.g., ABB, Tritium, Kempower, Alpitronic) is highly advantageous. Ability to read complex schematic drawings and trace industrial electrical faults safely.
