Job description

Mobile Maintenance Engineer – Electrical Bias

Facilities Management | Mobile Engineering | PPM & Reactive Maintenance

We’re looking for a qualified Mobile Maintenance Engineer with an Electrical bias to join our established Facilities Management engineering team.

Working across a portfolio of client sites, you’ll be responsible for planned and reactive maintenance, fault finding and repairs, helping to keep our clients' buildings, plant and electrical systems safe, compliant and operating effectively.

You’ll be joining a well-established mobile and static engineering team, with plenty of technical and operational support around you.

What you’ll be doing

Your Day-to-day Responsibilities Will Include

• Carrying out planned preventative maintenance (PPM) and reactive maintenance across client sites
• Electrical fault finding, diagnosis and repairs
• Maintaining electrical systems, lighting, small power, switchgear and associated building services
• Supporting the maintenance of HVAC plant and other mechanical and electrical systems
• Responding to BMS alarms and using building systems for first-line fault diagnosis
• Carrying out minor repairs, maintenance and installation works
• Completing maintenance records, service reports and compliance documentation
• Using simPRO to update jobs and record completed maintenance activities
• Ensuring plant rooms and engineering areas are maintained safely and to a high standard
• Identifying and reporting potential hazards, defects and outstanding statutory maintenance
• Liaising with subcontractors carrying out specialist works
• Communicating effectively with clients, end users and the wider engineering team
• Ensuring all work is carried out safely and in accordance with relevant electrical regulations and company procedures

Although this is an electrically biased position, we’re looking for someone with a flexible approach who is happy to support the wider team with general building-services maintenance where appropriate.

What we’re looking for

You’ll need previous experience working within an FM, building services or commercial maintenance environment, with strong electrical fault-finding and maintenance skills.

Essential

• City & Guilds Level 3 Electrical Installation 2365
• 18th Edition Wiring Regulations
• Previous electrical maintenance and fault-finding experience
• Good understanding of electrical safe working practices and the Electricity at Work Regulations
• Experience working with planned and reactive maintenance
• Strong communication and customer-service skills
• Ability to work independently across multiple client sites
• Good organisational skills and the ability to prioritise work

Desirable

• IPAF
• PASMA
• L8 / water hygiene
• BMS and controls
• Generators
• HVAC/building services
• Pumps and pressurisation systems
• Ventilation systems
• Lighting and small power

Your team

You’ll join a team of seven Mobile Engineers, working alongside a wider team of Static Engineers.

You’ll also have support from four Supervisors and four Contract Managers, so although you’re working independently across client sites, you won’t be operating in isolation.

The team holds regular monthly meetings between engineers and management, alongside a dedicated team WhatsApp group for day-to-day updates, technical advice and support.

Callout

The role participates in an out-of-hours callout rota of approximately 1 week in 7, Monday to Sunday.

You’ll receive a £200 standby payment for the on-call week, plus additional callout payments where applicable.

Some additional overtime may also be available depending on client and business requirements.

Training & progression

We want our engineers to continue developing.

You'll have access to training programmes and opportunities to broaden your technical skills, alongside career-development opportunities within the wider engineering and Facilities Management team.

For engineers looking to progress their careers, there are opportunities to develop towards more senior engineering and supervisory positions as your experience grows.

Join the team

This is a great opportunity for a qualified Electrical Engineer who enjoys the variety and independence of mobile engineering but also wants the support of an established FM team around them.

If you have strong electrical maintenance and fault-finding experience and are looking for your next opportunity within Facilities Management, we'd love to hear from you.
