We are recruiting for a Technical Lead to support a large healthcare facilities management contract.
This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced Electrical Engineer, Maintenance Supervisor or Senior Engineer looking to take the next step into a technical leadership position. Previous experience in a formal Lead Engineer role isn't essential – we're happy to consider someone ready to step up.
Working remotely from home, you'll work closely with the Contract Manager and a team of four Contract Support colleagues, providing technical support and helping ensure maintenance works are delivered to the required standard.
Key responsibilities:
- Reviewing planned preventative maintenance (PPM) reports and remedial quotations.
- Assessing quotations and recommendations to ensure works are technically suitable and represent value for money.
- Providing technical guidance and support to the Contract Manager.
- Reviewing maintenance requirements and identifying any additional works required.
- Supporting the coordination and delivery of minor projects and small works.
- Working closely with the Contract Support team to ensure maintenance documentation and processes are kept up to date.
- Attending occasional site visits to support the wider contract.
What we're looking for:
- Previous experience as a Lead Engineer, Engineering Supervisor, Maintenance Supervisor or Senior Engineer.
- Strong electrical engineering background preferred, although multi-skilled engineers will also be considered.
- Good understanding of building services and facilities maintenance.
- Experience reviewing PPM schedules, remedial works and contractor quotations.
- Strong IT skills and confidence using systems, reports and spreadsheets.
- Good communication skills and the ability to work independently.
- Someone organised, proactive and comfortable taking ownership of technical responsibilities.
The package:
- £45,000 salary.
- Home-based / remote working.
- Travel expenses covered for monthly site visits.
- Monday to Friday working pattern.
- Opportunity to step into a technical leadership role without direct line management responsibilities.
