• Perform preventative and corrective maintenance
• Coordinate subcontractors to ensure timely servicing, repairs, and compliance

Health, Safety & Compliance

• Patrol buildings regularly to identify and address maintenance needs or risks
• Ensure compliance with Health & Safety legislation and company policies
• Follow emergency and fire procedures, attending training as required
• Maintain engineering areas in a clean and safe condition
