We are looking for a qualified Electrical Maintenance Engineer to join our Facilities Management engineering team. This is a hands-on role covering planned and reactive maintenance across a portfolio of sites, working as part of an established engineering team. You will take ownership of electrical maintenance, fault finding and compliance while also supporting the wider team with general building services maintenance where required.
If you are an experienced electrical engineer from an FM or building services environment and want a role where there is genuine opportunity to develop and progress, we would like to hear from you.
What you'll be doing
- Maintaining safe, reliable and compliant electrical systems across the portfolio, including:
- Carrying out planned preventative maintenance (PPM) and reactive electrical maintenance
- Fault finding, diagnosis and electrical repairs
- Maintaining power distribution, lighting, emergency systems and associated plant
- Completing electrical replacements, remedial works and upgrades
- Carrying out inspections, testing and maintaining accurate records
- Ensuring work complies with BS 7671 and current UK electrical regulations
- Responding to electrical faults and minimising disruption to site operations
- Maintaining accurate job, maintenance and compliance records
- Producing clear reports on completed works and outstanding actions
- Liaising with colleagues, contractors and the wider Facilities Management team
- Providing technical electrical support where required
- Supporting other building-services maintenance activities as part of the wider engineering team
What we're looking for
- You will need to be a qualified electrical engineer with previous maintenance experience within Facilities Management, building services or a similar commercial environment.
- Essential:
- NVQ Level 3 or above in Electrical Installation or an equivalent recognised electrical qualification
- Strong electrical fault-finding and diagnostic skills
- Experience carrying out planned and reactive electrical maintenance
- Good understanding of electrical regulations and safe systems of work
- Experience working within commercial buildings/FM/building services
- Ability to work independently while being part of a wider engineering team
- Full UK driving licence and flexibility to travel between sites
- 18th Edition Wiring Regulations experience/knowledge would also be highly relevant to the role.
Your team
You won't be working in isolation. You'll join an established team of five engineers, consisting of:
- 2 Electrical Engineers
- 1 M&E Engineer
- 1 Plumbing Engineer
- 1 Fabric Engineer
The team is overseen by the Technical Lead, with support from the Senior Operations Manager, giving you access to both technical and operational support.
Callout
There is an out-of-hours callout rota of approximately 1 week in 5, with a £200 callout/standby payment.
Training & progression
We are keen to develop our engineers rather than keep people doing the same job indefinitely. Additional training is available across other engineering disciplines, allowing you to broaden your technical knowledge and capabilities. There is also succession planning within the team for future Technical Supervisor and Technical Lead opportunities, giving the right person a genuine route for progression.
Why join us?
This is an opportunity to join an established engineering team where you'll have the support to do your job well while continuing to develop your technical career. If you're a qualified Electrical Engineer with a strong maintenance background and you're looking for your next opportunity within Facilities Management, we'd love to hear from you.
