Electrician - Ready to get your evenings back?
This isn't about chasing the highest rate.
It's about getting your time, energy, and headspace back.
If you're self‑employed right now, you'll know the reality…
Early starts. Long days. Last-minute jobs.
Travel that eats into your evenings.
And the constant pressure of what's coming next.
It adds up.
This opportunity with a large social housing provider offers something different.
Something steadier.
Work that's planned.
Local patches.
A realistic workload.
You finish your day and actually switch off.
The role itself is proper electrical work - fault finding, repairs, kitchens, bathrooms, communal areas.
But it's not about rushing from one job to the next. It's about doing the job properly, first time, and taking pride in it.
You'll be working in people's homes, which means the human side matters just as much as the technical. Respect, care, and doing a job that genuinely makes a difference to someone's day.
What you'll notice quickly is the pace feels different:
* No constant firefighting
* No wondering where the next job is coming from
* No stretching yourself across unrealistic workloads
* Support when jobs get tricky, not pressure
* Systems, PPE, and processes that actually work
It's steady. Consistent. Well run.
And outside of work?
That's where the change really shows.
Less time on the road.
More energy in the evenings.
Weekends that actually feel like yours again.
You'll also get:
* Company vehicle
* Paid call-out on a rota (1 in 6)
* Proper structure and support
* A team that invests in apprentices and takes pride in doing things right
* £42,900 plus £6500 in holiday pay
This could suit someone who:
* Takes pride in their work and doesn't cut corners
* Wants stability without losing hands-on work
* Is starting to feel the strain of self-employed life and wants something more balanced
You don't need to tick every box, but ideally:
* NVQ Level 3 or equivalent (City & Guilds 2365, 2357 etc.)
* Inspection & Testing (2391 / 2394 / 2395 desirable)
* Solid knowledge of BS7671
* Experience in domestic or social housing work
* Full UK driving licence and good people skills
No pressure. No hard sell.
If you're just at the point of thinking "I can't keep doing this forever", it's worth a conversation.
