🦄 WANTED: OUR NEXT UNICORN ENGINEER 🦄
Apparently they don’t exist.
We’re pretty sure they do.
Unite is looking for a genuinely multi-skilled engineer who takes pride in their work, can think for themselves, looks after customers properly and doesn’t want to feel like just another number.
Ideally, our unicorn will have experience across several of the following:
🔥 Fire alarm systems
🔐 Intruder alarms
📹 CCTV
🚪 Access control
⚙️ Automatic doors / door automation
🌐 IP & networked systems
⚡ Electrical qualifications or experience would be a major advantage
You don’t need to tick every box — but you do need to be technically capable, reliable, willing to learn and able to work as part of a close-knit team.
The important bit: our work takes us across Scotland, the Highlands and Islands and sometimes further afield.
➡️ Working away and staying away when required is essential.
➡️ Overtime will sometimes be required.
➡️ A full driving licence is essential.
➡️ No “Monday Club”. Reliability matters.
We work in some incredible locations, with great clients and on projects that aren’t your everyday 9-to-5 engineering jobs.
We’re not putting a generic salary figure on this advert.
Tell us what you’re worth — and show us why.
And please don’t just fire over the same CV you’ve sent to ten other companies.
Send us your CV plus a few lines telling us:
🦄 Why do you want to work with Unite?
🦄 What skills would you bring to our team?
🦄 What makes you our Unicorn Engineer?
