About the Role
We have a Maintenance Technician role that will provide all reactive and planned maintenance works in a particular zone on our campus. Working in a team of tradespeople in your zone, you’ll be involved with basic repairs to our building fabric.
This is a multiskilled role, for which you’ll receive training and support across the trades. However, you’ll spend a significant proportion of your time on your trade(s) specialism. No two days will be the same in this varied role where you’ll thrive on providing an outstanding customer service experience to all building users in your zone.
