At Mitie, our people are our greatest strength, and our promise is to create a place to work where you can thrive and be your best every day. We're looking for an experienced Plumbing & Drainage Engineer to join our team at Toyota Manufacturing UK's Burnaston site.

This isn't a domestic plumbing role and it isn't a role where you'll spend your days fitting bathrooms in empty properties. You'll be working within a busy manufacturing environment where your skills directly contribute to keeping facilities operational for thousands of people every day.

Whether it's resolving a drainage issue before it impacts operations, repairing a leaking water system, improving welfare facilities, or supporting planned maintenance activities during shutdown periods, your work will help keep a major automotive manufacturing facility running smoothly.

Role Responsibilities:

• Carry out planned preventative maintenance (PPM) activities.
• Respond to plumbing and drainage-related breakdowns and defects.
• Diagnose and repair faults on hot and cold-water systems.
• Maintain and repair sanitary ware, taps, valves and associated plumbing equipment.
• Investigate and resolve drainage blockages and system failures.

Required Qualifications:

Applicants must meet the below defined requirements for the role.

• NVQ Level 2 or Level 3 in Plumbing & Heating (or equivalent).
• Experience working within Facilities Management, Building Services, Industrial Maintenance or Manufacturing.
• Strong plumbing fault-finding and diagnostic skills.
• Experience maintaining commercial hot and cold-water systems.
• Experience maintaining drainage systems and associated infrastructure.

What's in it for you?

• £30,000 - £31,800 basic salary (dependent on experience) plus 20% shift allowance (equivalent to approximately £36,000 - £38,160 annual earnings before overtime).
• 23.5 shifts annual leave (inclusive of Bank Holidays), pension scheme and Mi Deals employee benefits platform.
• Ongoing training and development, overtime opportunities and career progression opportunities.

A Typical Shift Could Include

• Investigating a drainage blockage within a welfare facility.
• Repairing a leaking pipework system.
• Replacing a faulty flush valve or tap.
• Carrying out maintenance on under-sink pumping equipment.
• Inspecting drainage infrastructure.
• Completing a plumbing modification to support an improvement project.
• Supporting maintenance activities during a planned production shutdown.
• Updating work orders and recording completed tasks within Maximo.
• Working alongside engineers from other disciplines to deliver site improvements.

Desirable Skills & Experience

• Manufacturing or automotive industry experience.
• Experience using Maximo or similar CAFM systems.
• Knowledge of calorifiers, expansion vessels, control valves, point-of-use water heaters, under-sink pumps and wastewater systems.
• IPAF qualification.
• PASMA qualification.
• Confined Space Awareness.
• Previous experience working on a shift-based maintenance team.

There's a place for you at Mitie. Join us today.
