Electrical Power & Cooling Engineers - Service Provider

Are you a qualified electrician looking for a field role that offers long-term stability, a company vehicle, and a business that will fund your ongoing qualifications rather than expect you to fund them yourself?

A major UK infrastructure business is seeking Electrical Power and Cooling Engineers across Devon, Plymouth, and Cornwall on a permanent basis. These are field-based roles maintaining and repairing critical national network infrastructure - Low and High Voltage systems, generators, UPS, emergency lighting, cooling systems, and alarms - across a wide range of environments including exchange buildings, radio sites, rooftops, and roadside infrastructure.

A structured 18-month training programme is provided, and all additional City and Guilds qualifications are fully funded by the business. This is a role where your development is actively invested in, not left to chance.
