• Experience in electrical maintenance, repair, and fault finding within Facilities Management or a similar environment.
• Strong understanding of UK electrical regulations, standards, and safe working practices.
• Excellent fault-finding and problem-solving skills.
• Ability to work independently and manage workload effectively.

You’ll report directly to the Engineering Supervisor and work closely alongside the site’s Fabric Technician as part of a collaborative engineering team.
