Job description

We are looking to recruit a Maintenance Electrician to work as a member of a multi-tasking maintenance team, providing professional and technical expertise within an effective and efficient customer-focused maintenance service. The goal is to ensure a fit-for-purpose estate and environment for all Trust-owned, leased, or rented properties.

If you want to live and work locally, with an employer that offers flexible and agile working, along with great development and career progression opportunities, then this may be the role for you!

The post holder is accountable within the Facilities Department for ensuring that adequate processes and procedures exist for the improvement, promotion, and delivery of safe, quality, and cost-effective services. This includes contributing to auditing procedures and promoting the Maintenance Department through effective communication with all customers.

This role is initially based at Springfield Hospital but may require work at any property owned, leased, or rented by the Trust.

This is an exciting time to join the Trust as we are starting a new hospital on both major sites within the next three years, making it a leading mental health hospital.

Please note that you will be part of an on-call system, and a driving license is required.

We are proud to belong to South West London and St George’s Mental Health NHS Trust, which has a rich history and a commitment to providing the best quality care for those with mental health issues. Our services are rated as ‘good’ by the Care Quality Commission, with aspirations to be ‘outstanding’.

This is a great time to join us as we transform our care services to support our mission of Making Life Better Together. We have built two new mental health facilities at Springfield University Hospital, among the best in the world, with more developments planned across our sites and services.

We are inclusive, diverse, and actively anti-racist. We aim to attract people from all backgrounds to enrich our work and involve our local communities in all we do.

We offer flexible working, career development, and various benefits to create a positive environment where our people and their careers can thrive.

Join our inclusive teams and help our patients on their recovery journey.

• Carry out all work safely and efficiently, reporting any defects to supervisors and management.
• Liaise with contractors regarding minor project work.
• Participate in effective communication and team briefings with supervisors.
• Communicate tactfully and diplomatically with all disciplines, maintaining confidentiality when appropriate.
• Ensure stores and equipment are maintained at correct levels for efficient service.
• Inform ward managers, staff, and customers of any delays in maintenance requests to ensure a customer-focused service.
• Promote safe, quality, and value-for-money maintenance services across the Trust.
• Comply with statutory and mandatory requirements related to maintenance services and procedures.
