About the Company

My client is a fast-growing EV charging network operator, going through a strong period of growth as they expand their DC charging footprint across the M25.

The Role

This is a broader Electrical/Facilities role, not a straight electrician position, and not a role limited to people from the EV charging sector. We're just as interested in electricians or field engineers from asset maintenance, street furniture, M&E, building services or similar backgrounds who are used to owning a site end to end. You'll take full responsibility for a portfolio of charging sites: electrical fault-finding and diagnostics, plus the general upkeep that keeps a site looking and working properly, from emptying bins to cutting back hedges to dealing with graffiti. This isn't hours of cleanup work; anything serious goes to a contractor. It's about being someone who's happy to do a little bit of everything on a site visit, not just the technical piece.

There's real progression with this role, this is a newly created role for the business, and the right person has a real path to becoming the senior technician for the region, or taking on a team, as the site portfolio grows.

Key Responsibilities

• Take full ownership of assigned sites: electrical fault-finding, general site presentation, and everything in between
• Attend site to investigate faults: isolate DC chargers safely, confirm the site is safe, then carry out fault finding and diagnostics
• Maintain the general appearance and cleanliness of each site: emptying bins, clearing litter, and keeping the charging bays and surrounding area presentable
• Manage vegetation and groundskeeping around chargers and site access, including cutting back hedges, trees, or overgrowth that blocks visibility, signage, or driver access
• Identify and remove graffiti or vandalism promptly, arranging further cleaning support where the issue is beyond a quick fix
• Spot and report wider facilities issues, damaged signage, broken fencing, potholed bays, faulty lighting, drainage problems, and either resolve directly or escalate to the right internal team or contractor
• Arrange and coordinate deep cleans or specialist facilities work with third-party contractors where required, and follow through to make sure it's completed to standard
• Liaise regularly with site landlords (e.g. pub operators/retail parks) and drivers, gathering insights and reporting back clearly to the Account Managers
• Speak directly with customers on site to understand issues, resolving them there and then wherever possible
• Undertake electrical inspections and reactive attendance for priority incidents, working with internal teams, charge point manufacturers and third-party suppliers
• Visit all assigned DC sites at least weekly to catch faults early and improve response times
• Carry out minor electrical repairs (e.g. MCB/RCD replacements) and reset equipment following safe isolation
• Raise, monitor and chase support cases with manufacturers and third parties through to resolution
• Provide weekend support for urgent operational issues
• As the portfolio grows, take on responsibility for a small team of site engineers
