Substation Fitter Instructor (Full Training Provided) Manchester (Trafford Park) Competitive Salary + Pension + Provided Lunches + Training + Progression + Holiday Are you a Substation Fitter or HV Technician with experience building and installing substations within the transmission sector? Have you been working on-site projects and want a more structured, less pressured environment where you can use your experience to develop others? This is a rare opportunity to join a leading training provider within the energy and engineering sector, delivering high-quality training across electricity transmission. With significant investment into modern facilities - including realistic substation build environments - they are setting the standard for technical training in the industry. The organisation works closely with industry to deliver training that reflects real-world installation projects, while providing a professional, supportive and empowered working culture.

You'll play a key role in developing the next generation of engineers while continuing to build your own career within training and education. Full training and support will be provided to help you transition into the role. In return, you'll benefit from a structured working environment, strong work-life balance, ongoing development (including teaching and assessing qualifications), and clear progression opportunities as the training division continues to grow. The Role: Deliver training focused on substation construction and installation practices Support delivery of technical certificates in power engineering Assess learners against national qualification standards (NVQ / Diploma / EPA) Design and develop high-quality training materials based on real-world installation projects Deliver compliance and safety training relevant to transmission environments Support learners throughout their full training and assessment journey Maintain high standards of health, safety and training delivery The Person: Background in substation fitting within electricity transmission (construction/install focus) Experience working on substation build projects - installing primary plant and associated equipment Strong practical experience in mechanical fitting, steelwork and substation installation activities Minimum of 5 years' experience within transmission or large-scale HV infrastructure projects Good communicator with the ability to support and develop others Interested in moving into a training/instructor role and building a long-term career Rise Technical Recruitment Ltd acts an employment agency for permanent roles and an employment business for temporary roles.
