Electrician

Are you an experienced electrician looking for an exciting new opportunity? How about joining our dynamic team at Aspire Defence Services, where you’ll play a crucial role in supporting our Army customers on a military estate? Take your electrical expertise to new heights and turn your potential energy into a successful career.

As an electrician, you possess a keen sense for electrical systems and can quickly identify and resolve faulty connections. Your extensive knowledge of health and safety practices ensures a secure work environment, and you excel in providing effective reactive and planned maintenance repairs tailored to meet the specific needs of our Army customers.

In this role, you’ll be responsible for a range of tasks, including electrical maintenance repairs, fire alarm testing, minor installations, and distribution board replacements. When faced with breakdowns, you confidently work alone to investigate the causes of faults and propose practical solutions.

Your ability to work independently is complemented by your strong team spirit. As part of our highly skilled maintenance team, you’ll collaborate with fellow professionals who prioritise mutual support and growth. Regular reviews, meetings with your line manager, and ongoing training opportunities will further enhance your career development.

To excel in this position, you’ll need a proven track record as a qualified electrician, demonstrating proficiency in fault finding and a deep understanding of safe work practices. Your expertise will extend to fire alarm testing, minor installations, and distribution board replacements. Additionally, your ability to work autonomously and maintain a calm demeanour under pressure is essential.

But first, meet the team…

With a 35-year contract, making soldiers’ lives better is at the heart of everything we do at Aspire Defence Services.

Seriously, picture a heart (the real one) and imagine how hard it works to keep the body running, making sure every part gets exactly what it needs to thrive. That’s our mission; to deliver a modern, fully serviced, flexible working environment for soldiers.

And just as the heart needs certain parts to keep the body alive, we need the dedication and commitment of our people to support our customers. We deliver a broad range of services for one-third of the British Army living and working on our patch, and we’re proud of the work we do.

We’re all about nurturing great teams, and our award-winning safety and wellbeing initiatives are built on keeping an eye out for one another and having a good work-life balance.

In addition to being part of our team, you’ll also get…

• 25 days annual leave plus bank holidays, as well as the option to buy and sell holiday
• Contributory Company Pension Plan matched up to 6%, plus individual life assurance
• A van and fuel card for business travel
