What we are looking for

Ideally, you'll have some previous experience but that's not essential as we'll assess your suitability for the role during the application process.

Of course, it's vital that you demonstrate a willingness to learn, a genuine interest in the electricity industry, and a true enthusiasm for developing a career in this challenging and ever-evolving field.

Because we're responsible for an area of 25,000 square kilometres, it really is essential that our people have a driving licence. So if you don't have yours already, you should ideally be working towards it.

Like us, you must be passionate about providing an excellent service for our customers - with a flexible approach that means you're always ready to focus on what's needed, even if it isn't what was originally planned.

A team player, you're good at managing your own time. Naturally, it's essential that you enjoy working with your hands, and that you like the idea of working outdoors in all kinds of weather!
