Electrician / Electrical Maintenance Engineer
NVQ Level 3 & AM2 Required
Multiple Openings at Equinix LD14
If you're a qualified electrician looking for something more than routine maintenance work, we'd like to hear from you.
We're growing the engineering team at LD14, one of Equinix's newest London/Slough data centres, and we're hiring across multiple experience levels.
If you've completed your NVQ Level 3 and AM2 and have experience working on electrical systems, we'll provide the training and support to help you succeed.
Whether you've worked in commercial building services, facilities maintenance, utilities, rail, the Armed Forces, or another technical environment, your skills could be a great fit.
What You'll Be Working On

That includes:
- Electrical distribution systems
- UPS systems
- Standby generators
- Switchgear
- Building Management Systems (BMS)
- Cooling and HVAC equipment
- Fire and life safety systems
Your day could involve planned maintenance, fault finding, responding to alarms, supporting contractors, carrying out inspections, reviewing system performance, or helping deliver infrastructure projects. Responsibilities include operating, maintaining and repairing critical facility systems, responding to incidents, supporting vendors and maintaining site documentation.
What We're Looking For
Essential
- NVQ Level 3 in Electrical Installation or Maintenance
- AM2 Qualification
- Experience working on electrical equipment in a commercial or industrial environment
- A strong focus on safety
- A willingness to learn
Useful But Not Essential
- Building Services experience
- Facilities Maintenance experience

- Previous experience in a critical environment
If you've got a solid electrical background, don't rule yourself out because you've never worked in a data centre before.
Build a Career, Not Just Find Another Job

From day one, you'll work alongside experienced engineers and receive training on critical infrastructure including UPS systems, generators, switchgear, cooling systems and Building Management Systems. Over time, you'll build specialist skills that are highly valued across the industry.
We're hiring across multiple engineering levels, creating opportunities for both developing electricians and experienced engineers. Whether your goal is to become a technical specialist, move into project work, lead a team, or progress into engineering management, Equinix offers clear development pathways and long-term career opportunities.
