Job Title: Operations and Maintenance Engineer – EV Charging Infrastructure
Location: Bristol (Hybrid – office and remote)
Imagine your next mission delivering vital public service on a city scale. You’ve thrived in high‑stakes environments, maintaining critical electrical systems under pressure. Now picture applying that same drive to keep Bristol’s electric‑vehicle network online, directly powering climate action and daily life. This role offers you the chance to step off the tools, lead complex installations and shape processes that enable a cleaner, more resilient city.
Why this role
You’ll be at the heart of a pioneering city‑wide decarbonisation programme, responsible for ensuring that every AC and DC charge point is ready when drivers need it. Your work means fewer breakdowns, faster fixes and greater confidence in EV technology. With your disciplined approach and attention to detail, you’ll help Bristol achieve its net‑zero targets while influencing the development of best‑in‑class maintenance procedures. The sense of purpose you felt serving your country will continue here, as you deliver tangible benefits for businesses, public institutions and residents alike.
What you’ll do
You will manage contractor teams through each stage of installation, commissioning and maintenance, balancing remote troubleshooting with hands‑on site visits. Interpreting BS 7671 regulations, you’ll lead fault‑finding exercises, verify compliance records and author clear technical procedures. Your confident challenge of design assumptions will refine installation standards, while your meticulous reporting will underpin transparent performance monitoring. Regular liaison with project managers, clients and manufacturers will ensure smooth handovers and rapid resolution of any issues.
About the company
Our client is a trusted energy‑solutions partner to public sector bodies, educational institutions and healthcare providers across the UK. They design, build and operate tailored efficiency upgrades and distributed energy systems that reduce costs, enhance resilience and drive decarbonisation. Their Bristol EV charging network is internationally recognised as a world‑first model for sustainable urban energy.
About you
You come from a strong electrical maintenance background—perhaps as a service electrician, radar or avionics technician, submarine electrical specialist or similar—with at least two years of hands‑on experience. You excel at diagnosing faults under pressure, thrive on ownership of complex systems and communicate confidently with technical and non‑technical stakeholders. Armed‑forces experience is highly valued for the discipline and adaptability it brings, but anyone with comparable skills and the determination to master EV charging standards on the job will succeed.
Rewards & growth
You’ll receive full training in EV‑charging regulations, professional development opportunities and clear progression pathways. Alongside a competitive salary and hybrid working model, you’ll join a collaborative team that values integrity, initiative and shared purpose as you help power Bristol’s sustainable future.
