You will naturally have an interest in troubleshooting, fixing, testing, and maintaining electrical equipment, with some exposure to electrical work—whether through outdoor lighting, CCTV, controllers, detection boxes, telecommunications/radio equipment, or related college courses/diplomas.
Key Requirements:
* Motivation and willingness to learn on the job and via online learning
* Previous experience in electrical testing, maintenance, fixing, or installing, or a holder of an electrical course/diploma or similar

* Full UK Driving Licence and residence in Oxfordshire
* Willing to undertake a Drugs & Alcohol test to ensure compliance
