Palma de Mallorca / Barcelona, Spain Permanent | Yacht Service & Refit

Are you an experienced Marine Electrician with a strong background in yacht electrical systems, fault-finding and technical refit work?

We are supporting an established international yacht organisation looking to strengthen its technical service team in Spain, with opportunities available in both Palma de Mallorca and Barcelona .

This is a senior, hands-on position for someone comfortable taking ownership of electrical work onboard yachts - from diagnosing complex faults through to installing, upgrading and commissioning complete systems.

You will be involved in maintenance, repair and upgrade projects across a range of high-quality yachts.

The work covers both AC and DC systems and can include onboard power generation and distribution, charging systems, battery installations, inverters, digital control systems, solar equipment and associated electrical infrastructure.

Projects will vary considerably, so this would suit someone who enjoys troubleshooting and finding practical technical solutions rather than carrying out repetitive installation work.

Support battery-bank upgrades and modern lithium power installations
Install and test solar charging equipment and related components

The projects
You will be working within a busy yacht service environment supporting vessels undergoing maintenance, upgrades and more substantial refit periods.

Projects can range from individual equipment faults through to wider electrical modernisation programmes involving multiple interconnected onboard systems.

A strong diagnostic mindset will therefore be just as important as your installation experience.

The business has a strong focus on technical quality and long-term yacht support, offering the successful electrician the opportunity to work across varied and challenging projects rather than being limited to one area of electrical work.
