The work is more specialised, supporting agricultural and industrial clients with equipment such as pumps, pivots, motors, VSDs, starter panels and control wiring . While an experienced candidate is preferred, there is also scope to consider a newly qualified Electrician with the right technical foundation and willingness to be trained.

The ideal candidate will already have experience working with pumps, irrigation pivots, electric motors, variable speed drives (VSDs), starter panels and control wiring. Someone whose experience has been predominantly domestic or residential wiring is unlikely to have the technical exposure required for this position. For a less experienced but qualified Electrician, the business is willing to provide training and development. Remuneration will reflect the individual's level of practical experience and ability to work independently.

What’s On Offer Opportunity to work in a specialised electrical environment rather than standard domestic electrical work. Hands-on exposure to agricultural and industrial electrical systems. Training and development for a newly qualified Electrician who demonstrates the right aptitude and attitude. Greater earning potential for candidates who bring strong, relevant hands-on experience. Opportunity to build long-term expertise across specialised electrical applications. Company Culture This is a practical, hands-on environment where technical ability and willingness to learn matter. The team works closely with agricultural and industrial clients and needs people who are comfortable getting involved in field-based technical work, solving problems and continuously developing their skills.
