Electrical Department Team Leader

Full-time, permanent position | Immediate start available

Monday–Thursday: 8:00am–5:00pm
Friday: 7:30am–4:00pm

Salary: Competitive, depending on experience.

Key Plant Automation Ltd is a leading provider of innovative automation solutions, specialising in advanced welding, positioning, and robotic systems. With a reputation for quality, precision, and reliability, we design and manufacture bespoke machinery and automation systems for customers across a range of industries worldwide.

Due to continued company growth and the planned retirement of our current Electrical Team Leader, we are looking for an experienced Electrical Department Team Leader to join our production team.

This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced electrical professional to lead a skilled and already established electrical team within a growing engineering company.

The successful candidate will benefit from a planned and supportive handover period with our current Electrical Team Leader, who is preparing for retirement. This will provide a valuable opportunity to work alongside the existing team leader, gain a thorough understanding of the department and ongoing projects, and ensure a smooth and well-supported transition into the role.

About the Role

As the Electrical Department Team Leader, you will be responsible for overseeing the day-to-day activities of the electrical department while remaining actively involved in the hands-on electrical assembly, wiring, testing, diagnostics, and fault-finding of industrial machinery and control systems.

You will lead and support a small team of electrical technicians, allocate workload, manage priorities, and ensure that all electrical systems, machinery, and control panels are built and tested to a high standard.

This is a hands-on technical leadership role rather than a purely supervisory position.

Key Responsibilities

Lead, support, and develop a small team of electrical technicians.
Allocate tasks and manage the day-to-day workload of the electrical department.
Plan and prioritise electrical work to support project deadlines.
Carry out hands-on electrical assembly and machine wiring.
Build and wire industrial control panels and electrical systems.
Work from electrical schematics and engineering drawings.
Work with drives, inverters, and single and multi-axis control systems.
Carry out electrical testing, diagnostics, and fault-finding.
Identify faulty components and systems and carry out appropriate repairs or rewiring.
Ensure electrical work is completed to the required quality and safety standards.
Work closely with engineering, production, and project teams to deliver bespoke solutions.
Act as the main technical point of contact for electrical assembly and related issues.
Support continuous improvement within the electrical department and workshop.
Support the training and development of team members.
Work alongside the current Electrical Team Leader during the planned retirement handover period.
Report to the Director of Engineering.

About You

We are looking for someone with strong practical electrical experience who is confident working with industrial machinery and control systems and is ready to take on a leadership role.

You may currently be working in a role such as:

Electrical Technician
Senior Electrical Technician
Electrical Engineer
Electrical Supervisor
Electrical Team Leader

The ideal candidate will have experience with:

Industrial electrical wiring and machine building.
Control panel construction and wiring.
Electrical schematics and engineering drawings.
Drives, inverters, and control systems.
Single and multi-axis machinery.
Electrical diagnostics and fault-finding.
Testing and commissioning electrical systems.
Working collaboratively with mechanical and electrical engineers.

Experience leading, supervising, mentoring, or supporting other technicians would be advantageous.

Essential Attributes

Proven experience working with industrial electrical systems.
Strong electrical diagnostic and fault-finding abilities.
Experience with drives and control systems.
Ability to read and work from electrical schematics.
Excellent communication and interpersonal skills.
Ability to organise workload and manage priorities.
A hands-on and proactive approach to problem-solving.
Honesty, reliability, and a strong work ethic.
Ability to work effectively both independently and as part of a team.
Willingness to work occasional additional hours when required to meet project deadlines.

Benefits

Competitive salary, depending on experience.
Overtime opportunities.
Full-time, permanent employment.
Company-supplied and maintained workwear.
In-house training courses.
Option to join the NEST company pension scheme.
Opportunity to earn a yearly attendance bonus.
One additional day of holiday for your birthday.
Free on-site secure parking.
Stable employment with a growing company.
Excellent opportunity for career development and progression.

Holiday entitlement: 20 days plus 8 bank holidays, with an additional birthday holiday.

The company operates a shutdown over the Christmas period.
