We're seeking a proactive and reliable skilled Electrical or Mechanical Engineer (NVQ Level 3 or equivalent) looking for your next opportunity. You'll become a valued member of our team who can carry out in-house maintenance of building services and equipment across three key buildings on a permanent basis. You'll ensure reliability of the depot operations and colleague safety at our Fresh Direct (part of Sysco GB) depot in Bicester, Oxfordshire.

As a key member of our engineering team, you'll take charge of maintaining essential building services and equipment, ensuring the reliability of our depot operations and the safety of our colleagues. From electric doors and metal detectors to cooking vessels and heated pan kettles, you'll be responsible for the upkeep and performance of a range of critical machinery. Your role will involve carrying out scheduled lubrication routines, conducting preventative maintenance, and responding to general repairs, helping to reduce our reliance on external contractors.

You'll be someone with experience in either electrical or mechanical engineering disciplines (18th Edition Wiring regulations - desirable), and general facilities plumbing would be a great advantage. Strong IT skills, particularly in Microsoft Office, are also beneficial. Flexibility is key, as you'll need to be available for occasional emergency call-outs. If you have a passion for problem-solving, take pride in keeping facilities running smoothly, and are ready to take on a role with variety and responsibility, we'd love to hear from you.

In addition to a competitive monthly salary, 31 days annual leave (including statutory) and company pension, you can also look forward to the following benefits:

• Wagestream - Access to an app that gives you early access to your earned salary and supports financial wellbeing
• The option to purchase additional annual leave
