They look after large retail and commercial estates and are looking for Reactive Electrical Engineers to join their electrical division, based out of Cheshire. This is a reactive maintenance role, not a testing-only or installation position. Most of your day will be spent responding to faults and breakdowns in live stores.

It’s a mobile role covering multiple sites, so you’ll be travelling as part of the job and will sometimes need to work away. When you do, accommodation and meals are covered.

In return, they need people who are reliable, responsive and genuinely happy working independently.
