EICR ElectricianLocation: York and surrounding areaLet’s be honest: not all electrical jobs are created equal. Some are “change a light fitting and call it a day.” This isn’t one of those. We’re looking for an EICR Electrician who gets a kick out of making things safe, ticking every compliance box, and leaving behind wiring that would make even the IET blush.We’re ECS, an award-winning compliance crew keeping the lights on (and the sparks off) in homes, housing associations, public sector sites and commercial buildings. We mix industry know-how with modern tech so inspections run smoothly, reports actually make sense, and the only disruption is deciding who makes the tea.Why you might actually want this job:
A salary of £36,000 to £40,000 DOE, plus benefits and a company vehicle (your mobile HQ)
You get to say “I keep thousands safe” at parties, which is cooler than it sounds
You’ll work on social housing and public sector projects that actually matter
You’ll have up-to-date kit that does the hard graft for you (no stone-age testers here)
Pay’s competitive, the team’s solid, and there’s room to grow without drowning in buzzwords
What you’ll actually be doing (minus the fluff):
Carrying out Electrical Installation Condition Reports (EICRs) — the proper, detailed kind
Spotting and fixing C1 and C2 faults on site (because “just flagging it” isn’t your style)
Installing and issuing Electrical Installation Certificates (EICs) when required
Keeping it all above board with the regs (18th Edition is your bedtime reading, right?)
Managing your own workload like a pro, but still being part of the wider crew
Travelling up to an hour to reach different sites when needed
What we’re looking for (you, basically):
An NVQ Level 3 (or equivalent) in Electrical Installation
18th Edition qualified — you know your regs inside out
Inspection & Testing qualification: City & Guilds 2391, 2394/2395, 2391-52 or EAL equivalent
Experience working in social housing (or similar)
Organised, self-motivated, detail-focused (your mates say “bit of a perfectionist”)
Good communicator who doesn’t glaze people over with technical jargon
Someone who treats health & safety as gospel, not a suggestion
If you’re after a job where you can coast, this isn’t it. But if you like the idea of making a difference one inspection at a time — with a side order of modern kit, proper pay, and a team that actually has your back — then you know what to do.Apply, and let’s talk wiring.ECS Group is an Equal Opportunity Employer.
