The Opportunity
If you’re a Multi Skilled Electrical Technician with strong electrical skillset looking to step into a role that goes beyond routine maintenance, this is an opportunity to work in a truly dynamic and technically stimulating environment. In this position, you’ll be part of a specialist engineering team responsible for maintaining complex, safety-critical systems. From high-performance ride systems to sophisticated control and automation technologies, you’ll gain exposure to equipment that combines electrical, mechanical, and PLC-based systems in ways rarely found elsewhere.
Key Responsibilities
- Conduct daily pre-opening inspections, testing, and safety checks across a range of electrical systems, ensuring all assets are operational, compliant, and ready for use.
- Carry out both planned preventative maintenance (PPM) and reactive maintenance on electrical equipment, control systems, and associated infrastructure.
- Diagnose faults efficiently using a methodical approach, identifying root causes and implementing effective solutions to minimise downtime.
- Respond promptly to breakdowns across the site, working under pressure while maintaining a strong focus on safety and quality.
- Work collaboratively with mechanical technicians and operational teams to ensure all systems are maintained and repaired to the highest standard.
- Interpret technical drawings, schematics, and manuals to support troubleshooting and maintenance activities.
What We’re Looking For
- Proven experience in electrical maintenance within a fast-paced or industrial environment (both planned and reactive).
- Strong fault-finding skills with the ability to work quickly and effectively under pressure.
- A proactive, hands-on approach with high attention to detail and a strong commitment to safety.
- Good organisational and time-management skills, with the ability to prioritise workloads effectively.
- Level 3 qualification (or above) in an electrical discipline.
- Full UK driving licence.
- Experience with control systems, PLCs, or automation would be advantageous, though not essential.
What Makes This Role Different
- A highly varied working environment where no two days are the same.
- Exposure to advanced engineering systems and technologies not commonly found in traditional industries.
- The opportunity to develop specialist skills in a unique technical field.
- A strong team culture focused on collaboration, safety, and continuous improvement.
- The satisfaction of seeing your work directly contribute to large-scale operations running safely and smoothly.
Why Apply?
If you’re looking to move away from repetitive environments and into a role where your expertise contributes to something far more dynamic and engaging, this could be the perfect next step in your career.
