Electrical Engineer with PTS certification

We are currently seeking an Electrical Test Engineer with a valid PTS (Personal Track Safety) certification to join our team, based in either the South or North London area. In this role, you will be responsible for carrying out fixed wire testing and ensuring the highest standards of service delivery while working trackside. Your expertise in performing Electrical Installation Condition Reports (EICRs)—whether within the railway network, or in commercial or industrial environments will be key to achieving outstanding results and maintaining safety and compliance across all projects.

Zed Rail Limited, we don’t hire you based on your job title. Titles can be misleading and rarely tell the full story of your skills and experience. Instead, we’re on the lookout for exceptional individuals who can demonstrate their expertise in the areas outlined below. You don’t need to tick every box, if you can confidently discuss some of the experience we’re after, then we’d love to hear from you. We won’t overlook talent just because your career path doesn’t follow a traditional trajectory.

What sets us apart is our commitment to seeing beyond your CV. We invest in people who are ready to grow with us and want to be part of a company that genuinely values their potential. Many organisations talk about growth, but we’ve already achieved significant milestones, we’d be thrilled to share our journey with you. Let’s start the conversation.

What you receive for joining us:

We’re looking to offer a salary of £42,000-£47,000, depending on experience.   In addition, we offer a company vehicle, 23 days holiday (plus bank holidays), a performance related bonus, lots of overtime should you wish, a company pension, a uniform, and high street discounts. If you don’t have your PTS (Personal Track Safety) certification, not to worry, we’ll happily provide the course for you to attend as long as you have commercial testing experience and qualifications required.

Here’s a look at some of the things you’ll be doing:

– Perform EICRs using your deep understanding of both single and three-phase systems
– Carry out electrical repairs and minor works across the South London rail network
– Be prepared for flexible working hours, including occasional stays away from home and weekend shifts
– Keep detailed administrative records of all work completed, coordinating with the Helpdesk for planned maintenance and reporting
 

Can you show experience in some of these areas:

– City & Guilds 2360 or 2365 Level 3, or equivalent to BS7671 18th edition
– NVQ Level 3 including AM2
– City & Guilds or equivalent (phone number removed)
– Current PTS certificate along with IPAF and PASMA certifications (desirable).  ECS JIB registration is also ideal. An enhanced DBS disclosure will be requested
