How hiring works here
Apply online
One form for every role. It asks for certificate numbers, your ECS card and two referees so we can check things before we waste your time.
A phone call within two weeks
Karen or Lee rings everyone who is shortlisted, and emails everyone who isn't, with a reason.
Half a day with us
Interview at the unit, then a morning out on a job with one of the team. You see how we work; we see how you work. Paid for improvers and electricians.
Checks, then an offer
We verify qualifications with City & Guilds, your ECS card on the register, your licence with the DVLA, take up two references and run a DBS check. Then the offer, in writing.

Eight people, five of them electricians, two of whom came through our own apprenticeship.

Want a word before you apply?
Ring the office and ask for Lee. He'd rather have a ten-minute chat than read a form from someone who isn't sure.
