This is an entry-level, hands-on position with no line-management responsibility, supporting the upkeep, safety and day-to-day operation of our buildings and working environment. This is not a laboratory or scientific role, and scientific qualifications or experience are not required.

You will be supported by an experienced team while developing your maintenance skills and gaining experience across a range of facilities activities.

What you will be doing:

• Carrying out routine maintenance and minor repairs across the site
• Responding to maintenance issues and either resolving them or escalating them when specialist support is needed
• Supporting general site improvements and facilities projects
• Completing routine site and safety checks
• Identifying and reporting faults, hazards and maintenance requirements
• Keeping maintenance records clear and up to date
• Monitoring materials and supplies and reporting when stock needs replacing
• Helping to keep the site safe, clean, organised and well maintained
• Providing a helpful and responsive service to colleagues across the site

About you:

• You enjoy practical, hands-on maintenance work
• You have some practical experience or a basic understanding of general maintenance tasks
• You are comfortable using basic tools and learning how to complete new tasks safely
• You are reliable, organised and take pride in the quality of your work
• You are willing to learn and develop your maintenance skills
• You communicate clearly and work well with others
• You are flexible and willing to help with a range of facilities and site-maintenance tasks
  

What you will get:

In addition to a competitive salary, we provide generous holiday entitlement, a pension scheme with enhanced employer contributions, a health cash plan covering a range of therapy treatments, a cycle to work scheme, a retail discount scheme, death in service benefit, a discretionary bonus scheme, and free on-site parking.

You’ll also have access to our BHN Extras platform, offering cashback, discounts, and tech/home purchases via salary sacrifice.

Colleague wellbeing is important to us - we offer 24/7 virtual GP access, emotional support services, and a comprehensive wellbeing hub. We’re proud of our inclusive, supportive culture and provide a range of learning and development opportunities to help you grow both personally and professionally.
