About the Role

We're looking for an Electrical Appointed Person (AP) to join our United Utilities Framework based in Blackburn.

Location: Blackburn
Hours: 45 per week - some flexibility on hours available if desired, just let us know when you speak to us.

We are unable to offer certificates of sponsorship to any candidates in this role.

As an Electrical AP, you'll lead the supervision and safe delivery of electrical works across our projects. Working closely with the Electrical Project Manager and delivery teams, you'll oversee electricians, electrical supervisors, and subcontractors to ensure work is completed safely, efficiently, and to the highest quality standards. You'll also take on responsibilities as an Electrical AP, managing permits, isolations, and compliance with electrical safety rules.

Key Responsibilities

  • Working within the Water team, supporting them in delivering safe and efficient electrical works.
  • Leading and allocating work to electrical supervisors, electricians, and apprentices across multiple projects.
  • Issuing permits for electrical works and isolations, ensuring safe systems of work are always followed.
  • Carrying out site inspections, toolbox talks, and pre-start briefings to promote a proactive safety culture.
  • Monitoring progress, tracking daily outputs, and resolving any issues that could impact delivery or budgets.
  • Overseeing subcontractors and commissioning engineers, supporting safe commissioning and testing phases.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
