You'll be doing:

  • Running a crew on the ground – leading from the front
  • Planning jobs and making sure they're done safely and on time
  • Working closely with customers and other teams
  • Mentoring younger techs and passing on your knowledge

What we're looking for:

  • Current EWRB practising licence + Line Mechanic trade
  • 5+ years' experience on the lines
  • Solid fault response and distribution system knowledge
  • Clear communicator who leads by example
