This role would suit an ambitious lighting controls engineer, electrician or custom installer with experience of commissioning complex systems in a residential or high end commercial environments, wanting to broaden their role and progress. We can flex the role to provide as much responsibility and challenge as someone can handle, if you can do all of the below plus more, please talk to us.

Brilliant Lighting is an established business with an enviable reputation for creating stunning lighting schemes for prestigious new build and historic houses. We are focused on the high end residential and hospitality markets. We design, specify, supply and commission both the lighting and the lighting control systems, and are an integral part of a project team throughout a build. Technical excellence, a ‘can do’ attitude, good team skills and great attention to detail are key. We’re based in beautiful North Yorkshire, and work across the UK and abroad.

With an expanding turnover – and huge potential for further growth – we are seeking an additional lighting controls engineer to help grow the business.

· Ideally being able to tweak our AutoCAD plans to reflect minor changes onsite.

· Helping maintain the office premises and lighting displays.

For any new member of the team, we expect to do a lot of training. Successful candidates will though have skills and experience in at least one of:
