Support a variety of additional works, including water-efficiency measures, water butt installations, minor civils and asset replacements where appropriately trained and competent.
Identify and resolve technical issues, recommending remedial works and asset improvements, supporting quotations and escalating larger or higher-risk activities when required.
Maintain accurate records and documentation, including job reports, test results, photographs, customer sign-offs and relevant safety information.
Build positive customer relationships, communicating effectively with site contacts and internal teams while maintaining high standards of safety, quality and service.
Participate in an agreed call-out or emergency-response rota if introduced for your region.

Proven experience in electrical inspection, testing, fault diagnosis, repairs and remedial works, with the ability to deliver small projects and coordinate materials.
Strong organisational and problem-solving skills, with the ability to manage competing priorities, work independently and maintain accurate documentation.
Confident communication and a customer-focused approach, with the ability to build positive relationships and make sound decisions on site.
A full UK driving licence, with willingness to travel across your region and stay overnight occasionally.
An Emergency First Aid qualification, or willingness to obtain one.
Experience maintaining and repairing AC/DC EV charging infrastructure, including connectivity and communications diagnostics (desirable).
