The Opportunity
Are you an experienced electrician looking for a new challenge away from the tools? Or already working as an Electrical Assessor, Trainer or Training Officer and looking for a fresh opportunity?
 
This role is ideal for both:

• Qualified electricians wanting to transition off the tools

• Identifying learners at risk and putting support plans in place
• Working closely with employers to ensure high-quality training delivery
• Supporting apprentice recruitment and onboarding where required
• Promoting apprenticeship opportunities to employers, schools, and stakeholders
• Ensuring safeguarding, Prevent, and compliance standards are met

 
Who This Role Would Suit
This role is perfect for someone from one of the following backgrounds:

• Electrician
• Electrical Engineer (hands-on / installation)
• Electrical Tester / Inspector
• Electrical Supervisor / Site Manager
• Electrical Assessor / Trainer / Lecturer
• Maintenance Electrician

 
If you’re still on the tools but thinking about a long-term career change, full training and support can be provided to help you transition into education.
 
What We’re Looking For
Essential:

• NVQ Level 3 in Electrical Installation (or equivalent)
• Recognised electrical apprenticeship or equivalent experience
• Strong hands-on industry experience as a qualified electrician
• 18th Edition (or willingness to obtain)
• GCSE Maths & English (or equivalent)

 
Desirable:

• Assessor qualification (A1, D32/D33, TAQA)
• 2391 Testing & Inspection
• IOSH or similar Health & Safety qualification
• Experience working with apprentices or training delivery

 
What’s in It for You?

• Move away from the physical demands of site work
• Structured career progression into education and training
• Ongoing CPD and funded qualifications (teaching/assessing)
• Generous holiday allowance + bank holidays
• Pension scheme with employer contributions
• Optional healthcare and wellbeing benefits
• Flexible, home-based working with regional travel
• The opportunity to make a real impact on future electricians

 
Why Make the Move?
This is a genuinely rewarding career path where you can:

• Pass on your knowledge and experience
• Help shape the next generation of electricians
• Achieve better work-life balance
• Build a long-term, stable career outside of site work
