Contact: Emily or Sammy at Pearson Whiffin Recruitment

Please note: sponsorship is not available for this role.

Pearson Whiffin Recruitment are supporting a well-established UK engineering manufacturer delivering large ventilation and air handling systems across commercial and industrial environments.

We are recruiting an Electrical Service Engineer — however, this is not a purely electrical role.

While strong electrical capability is essential (and paid accordingly), there is a significant amount of mechanical assembly and installation involved on site. This role will suit an electrically qualified engineer who is happy to get fully involved in mechanical build and installation activity alongside electrical installation and commissioning.

If you are seeking a role that is 100% testing or panel work, this won’t be the right fit.

THE ROLE

You will support nationwide installation and maintenance of commercial air handling systems.

Your responsibilities will include:

Electrical installation, wiring and testing

Wiring motors to isolators and inverters

Electrical fault-finding and commissioning support

Mechanical assembly and installation of AHU components

Supporting full system builds alongside mechanical engineers

Acting as brand ambassador on site – commercial customers

UK-wide travel required with regular overnight stays (paid at overtime rates PLUS expense allowance)

WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR

Level 3 electrical qualification

18th Edition certification (ideally)

Strong hands-on electrical installation experience

Experience with Air Handling Units highly desirable

Comfortable undertaking significant mechanical assembly work (physical fitness essential due to size/weight of units)

Valid CSCS or ECS card (preferred, not essential, but must be willing to undertake)

Full UK driving licence, maximum 3 points

Flexible, team-oriented approach

Higher rate (£22.50) aimed at engineers with proven AHU experience and confidence across both disciplines.

EARNINGS & BENEFITS

Basic Salary:

£41,600 – £46,800 per year (based on 40 hours)

Realistic OTE: £58,000 – £65,000+

Based on consistent overtime, paid travel and overnight allowances.

Additional benefits include:

Overtime rates:

Weekdays outside core hours: x1.33

Saturdays: x1.5

Sundays: x1.75

Paid door-to-door travel

£45 overnight allowance

23 days holiday + BH

Significant opportunity for progression & development

This is ideal for an electrically qualified engineer who enjoys being on the road and is looking to fast track their development, with plenty of opportunity to increase earning potential through overtime and travel!
