About The Role
SPT is now seeking to recruit a Technical Craftsperson - Line. You will carry out diagnostics repairs and planned maintenance across a range of electrical equipment, including power and automated signalling/control systems, to support the ongoing delivery of Subway maintenance. This is an excellent opportunity to play an important role in the efficient running of the Subway while developing and broadening your own technical skills and experience in line with our modernisation activity and the introduction of new assets.
About You
You will have experience as a time‑served technician in either a recognised electrical or multi‑skilled engineering discipline supported by first‑hand experience, preferably in an automated maintenance environment where fault finding is critical. Safety is our priority, and experience of working in a safety‑critical environment is essential. Experience in main‑line signalling is desirable; however, a positive collaborative attitude and experience working flexibly in a multi‑disciplinary team are more important.
Good communication skills are essential to maintain accurate data on our asset‑management system, a key component for driving reliability.
This is a safety‑critical role working across all areas of the Subway system and assisting at engineering incidents as required within areas of competence.
Please note, this position falls into the high-risk category under the Alcohol and Drugs policy and is therefore subject to random and for‑cause testing procedures.
You will work as part of a multi‑disciplinary team, working an average of 38 hours per week on a 5‑week rotating shift pattern that includes some weekend working. You will be based at our Broomloan Depot in Govan, Glasgow.
As part of the recruitment process you will undertake aptitude testing.
