Installation Electrician (Wireman's Licence) – Immediate Start

The residential electrical contractor in Brits needs a qualified electrician who can work neatly and sign off safe installations. You don't need to be the loudest person in the room, just the one others can count on.

The work is in Brits, North West, so you'll need a reliable way to get there every day. Hours are mostly Monday to Friday, with the odd Saturday in busy months.
