I’m currently working on an opportunity for a Maintenance Control & Instrumentation Electrician to join a generation facility in Dublin.

This is a hands-on role within a high-performing maintenance team, focused on keeping plant operations running safely, reliably, and efficiently across a complex power generation environment.

You’ll be working across a wide range of electrical and control & instrumentation systems, supporting both planned and reactive maintenance activities. It’s a role that suits someone who is comfortable fault-finding in live environments and can work both independently and as part of a close-knit team.

 

What you’ll be doing:

  • Carrying out planned and reactive electrical and C&I maintenance
  • Fault finding, testing and repair of plant equipment
  • Installation, troubleshooting and commissioning of systems
  • Working on equipment such as transformers, generators, switchgear, motors and valves
  • Maintaining accurate records through CMMS systems
  • Preparing and reviewing method statements and risk assessments
  • Operating under safe systems of work and site safety procedures
  • Supporting wider maintenance and project activities as required

 

What I’m looking for:

  • 2–5+ years’ experience in power generation or heavy industrial environments (thermal, hydro, renewables or similar)
  • Strong knowledge of HV/MV/LV systems and/or C&I systems
  • Experience with instrumentation, calibration and electrical testing equipment
  • Ability to read electrical schematics and P&IDs
  • Strong safety mindset and team collaboration
  • Good organisational and IT skills

Nice to have:

  • Experience with permit systems
  • MEWP certification
  • Supervisory experience
  • Additional testing certifications

Requirements:

  • Electrical trade qualification (SOLAS / FÁS or equivalent)
  • Full driving licence
  • Flexibility for callouts when required

This is a solid opportunity for someone who wants to work on critical infrastructure, develop technically, and be part of a team that keeps essential power systems running.

If it sounds like something you’d be open to exploring, feel free to reach out.
