Are you currently working as an Electrician? Have you ever considered making the switch to Freelance work? Maybe now is the perfect time to consider this change in your career. In this article, we will list out all of the reasons why it may be a good idea for you to go Freelance.
Opportunity For Additional Earning
The average wage for a Freelance Electrician is currently at £1,032 per week. This is a 5.2% increase from what it was this time last year. All of this is resulting in an annual salary of £50,000 per year for those who operate as Freelance Electricians. In addition to this, with the recent easing of lockdown restrictions, there is an extremely high demand for the skills that a freelance Electrician has! With 85% of UK homeowners interested in some sort of home improvements, there are definitely customers out there for you.
As well as the reasons mentioned previously, your earning potential is in your own hands. You just need to have the drive to succeed and make your own business flourish. Although at the start it may be hard as you look to establish a presence in the local area if you constantly provide high-quality services you should have no problems once your business is established.
Become Your Own Boss
When you venture out into the industry as a Freelance Electrician you become your own boss. This is something that lots of people dream of but very few ever achieve. Lots of our students have dreams of one day becoming their own boss and attend Able Skills courses because they are looking to switch out of a career path where this would never be possible. When you operate as your own boss you are free to choose the type of work you complete and how much you charge for your services. So if you enjoy some aspects of the industry you can focus on them more and steer clear of the aspects that you don’t enjoy as much.
