Job Introduction

Electrician Wanted! Join the Diageo team as a Mobile Electrician, covering Scotland’s Central Belt with occasional trips to beautiful Islay. You’ll handle everything from planned and reactive maintenance to installations, testing, and fault finding — all while keeping safety and quality top of mind. Work closely with our M&E team to hit key targets and keep things running smoothly, and be ready to jump in for emergency call-outs as part of the rota.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Carry out a variety of electrical maintenance tasks including PPMs, emergency lighting checks, RCD and microwave testing, and first-line response to work orders.
  • Handle minor installations and repairs, such as lighting, sockets, switches, and plant equipment.
  • Support beyond the toolbox — pitch in with basic plumbing, unblocking drains, and odd jobs like installing shelves or notice boards.
  • Join the on-call rota (1 week in 4) for out-of-hours support when needed.


What We’re Looking For:

  • Fully qualified 18th Edition Electrician with time-served experience
  • Strong knowledge of electrical installations in commercial buildings and building services
  • Proven experience in PPM and reactive maintenance tasks
  • Confident with basic IT skills, including MS Office and handheld devices (PDAs)
  • Physically capable of working at height and in confined spaces
  • Solid understanding of health & safety practices and proper tool handling
  • Full, clean UK driving licence required

  • Mental health & wellbeing support
  • Employee Assistance Programme for personal, legal, and financial advice
  • 24/7 virtual GP & lifestyle rewards
  • Discounts for you & family
