You will be the first response to urgent issues, working as part of a multi-skilled estates team to keep critical systems operating for patients, staff and visitors.

* Diagnose and repair faults in electrical equipment and systems.
* Install and maintain electrical circuits, pumps, outlets and lighting.
* Support building services including lifts, fire alarms, sterilisation equipment and environmental controls.
* Work as part of the fire response team and ensure health and safety standards are always met.
Additional Features of the Role
This is a demanding but rewarding position where your decisions and actions directly affect the safety and comfort of patients, staff and visitors. You will be expected to work flexibly, including unsociable hours, and adapt quickly when priorities change. At times you will work independently, making critical judgements under pressure to meet challenging deadlines.
You will need to:
* Understand and work within the Performance Management System, completing tasks within required timescales to avoid penalties.
* Balance competing demands and disrupted work patterns, using sound judgement to prioritise effectively.
* Maintain professionalism while working around vulnerable patients and members of the public.
