If you don't mind having the conduit it's pretty easy. You do need to have a socket where the hole is for compliance.
A surface mounted pattress should be mountable to the back box that's there, then mount a new socket on top. You can butt the conduit up to the pattress, they have punch outs for that.

How do i describe the fix i need for this previous electrician's fuck up to a new electrician?
I guess i need a new back box that can fit some sort of raised socket bodge and then use the side knockout to run to that other socket?
