* Location: Heathrow & Gatwick Airports
* Rate: £230 per night (£28.75 per hour equivalent)
* Hours: 8:00 PM – 4:00 AM (True 8-hour shift – no 12-hour burnout)
* Contract Type: Ongoing Contract
Are you a qualified Commercial Electrician looking for a steady, long-term night shift without the grueling 12-hour site hours?
We are recruiting two experienced PPM Electricians for ongoing night-shift work across Heathrow and Gatwick airports.
The Golden Ticket Benefit:
Previous aviation experience is not essential. If you have a clean history, our client will fully sponsor, arrange, and pay for your 5-year Airside Pass and DBS check. This highly valuable airport security clearance is a massive, long-term asset to your career and future earning potential.
Why Apply?
* True 8-Hour Shifts: Work 8:00 PM to 4:00 AM. Clear the airport before the morning commuter rush hour even begins and get your day back.
* Clean Maintenance Work: Focus on scheduled testing and component swaps rather than heavy, dirty installation or containment pulling.
* Guaranteed Continuity: Steady, ongoing contract work with a reliable corporate client.
Responsibilities:
* Carry out planned preventative maintenance (PPM) on commercial electrical systems and airport equipment.
* Diagnose and rectify electrical faults.
* Complete associated reactive and minor component replacement works.
* Maintain accurate records using the client’s digital PDA system.
* Work independently and alongside the existing maintenance team.
* Complete all work safely and in accordance with airport procedures.
Essential Requirements:
* NVQ Level 3 in Electrical Installation (or equivalent)
* 18th Edition Wiring Regulations
* ECS Gold Card
* Commercial or industrial maintenance/PPM experience
* Own tools and transport to get to site
* Right to work in the UK and a clean 5-year checkable work/education history (essential for the airside pass)
(Note: City & Guilds 2391 Inspection & Testing or equivalent is highly beneficial, but competent commercial maintenance sparks are strongly encouraged to apply).
Provided:
* £230 per completed night shift
* Full DBS check and Airside Pass sponsorship arranged and paid for by the client
* Client PDA provided
* Long-term, ongoing work stability
The position will commence as soon as the standard airport security clearance and onboarding have been completed.
To Apply:
Please submit your up-to-date CV confirming your ECS Gold Card, inspection and testing qualifications, current location, and availability
