What lands in your inbox every fortnight

Short, useful, no fluff. Here's what to expect from The Current.

Who's hiring

Live UK electrical industry openings - the employer, the job title and the link to apply.

What it actually pays

Real UK salary bands for electrical roles and what moves you up them.

One thing to know

A card, a registration step or a route in, all explained plainly, one per issue.

Made for a very specific
kind of professional.

You trained or qualified abroad and you want to build a career in the UK but no one explains how the system actually works.

You have scrolled forums and pages but most of it is confusing, out of date or feels like it wasn't written for you.

You'd rather have one honest, real source than a hundred conflicting opinions.

Hi, I'm Tino. I had to figure the UK out the hard way too.

I trained as an electrician in Zimbabwe, moved to the UK and built my whole career from the ground up - the qualifications, the registration maze, all of it. Today I'm a substation design engineer. I started The Engineering Mum so the next person doesn't have to guess the way I did.
