Senior Electrician

Job description

Ammanford (Capel Hendre) · Home every night · £42,000–£50,000 + van + overtime

Thermal Earth has installed over 3,500 heat pump systems across the UK. We design, install and maintain ground and air source systems — including Wales' first commercial mine water heat scheme, at our own HQ.

We're looking for a Senior Electrician to lead the electrical side of that work.

What you'll actually be doing

  • First and second fix on heat pump installs — supplies, isolators, controls wiring, immersion and cylinder circuits, load monitoring, commissioning support
  • EV chargepoint installs and solar PV / battery storage work
  • Leading a small team of electricians and mates: allocating work, checking quality, mentoring apprentices
  • Inspection, testing and certification — EICs, MEIWCs, and signing off the team's work
  • Notifications, DNO applications and G98/G99 paperwork
  • Working with our design and install teams so the electrical scope is right before anyone gets on site — not fixed after

What you need

  • NVQ Level 3 (or City & Guilds 2360/2365 + AM2)
  • 18th Edition BS 7671 (current amendment)
  • City & Guilds 2391 (or 2394/95) inspection and testing
  • ECS Gold Card
  • Full UK driving licence
  • The judgement to run a job and the patience to bring a younger spark on

What'll put you at the front of the queue

  • Heat pump, solar PV or battery storage experience — any of the three
  • 2921 EV charging installation
  • 2919 PV and battery storage
  • Experience with heating controls, S-plan / Y-plan, and third-party control integration
  • Domestic retrofit work in occupied homes

Not done renewables before? If you're a strong, well-organised spark with a solid domestic or commercial background, we'll train you. The tickets we can add. The standards and the attitude have to already be there.

What you get

  • £42,000–£50,000 depending on experience and tickets
  • Van, fuel card and power tools
  • Overtime paid, plus 28 days holiday inc bank holidays
  • Pension
  • Paid training and tickets — including anything you're missing on the renewables side
  • Local patch: South and West Wales, home every night.
  • A pipeline of work that isn't going anywhere. Heat pumps are the long game and we've been at it longer than most
