- Strong analytical skills and problem-solving mindset
- Excellent written and verbal communication in English
- Certifications: VCA VOL / SCC or willingness to complete the training (1-2 days course with exam).

- On-site presence: 5 days per week, 8 hours per day (Choose between typically 7:00 – 16:00).
- Small, collaborative team (~5-6 people per site).
- Work involves high-voltage substation components, heavy equipment, and strict safety protocols.
- The role requires candidates based nearby or willing to relocate.
Why This Role Is Exciting
- Opportunity to work on cutting-edge offshore energy infrastructure.
- Gain hands-on experience in high-voltage substations in a challenging and rewarding environment.
- Collaborate closely with engineers and inspectors to ensure quality, safety, and technical excellence.
