Technical Manager & Senior Authorising Engineer (Water & Mechanical Healthcare)
£75,000 - £80,000 + Package
Hybrid / Operational Travel Across Healthcare Portfolio
Location: Yorkshire, Northwest, Northeast, East Midlands, Scotland
A major UK healthcare FM and technical services organisation is looking to appoint a senior operational water governance professional to support a large acute healthcare portfolio across multiple live healthcare environments.
This is not a traditional consultancy-led Authorising Engineer position.
The organisation is specifically looking for somebody with strong embedded operational healthcare estates exposure tied into water governance, compliance and technical support - somebody capable of working closely with operational estates teams whilst driving standards, improving compliance maturity and supporting complex live healthcare environments.
The position sits within a highly technical healthcare estates environment and will support operational teams across areas including water compliance, governance, remedials strategy, technical assurance, risk management and operational best practice.
The successful individual will act as a senior technical authority across the portfolio whilst remaining commercially and operationally practical in approach.
The environment itself is heavily healthcare-focused, including acute and critical environments, meaning there is a major emphasis around:
HTM 04-01
L8 / HSG274
Domestic water systems
Cooling towers
Closed systems
Water Safety Groups
RP / AP / AE structures
Healthcare water governance and compliance
Operational estates support
The client is specifically looking for somebody collaborative and operationally credible rather than a purely external audit/reporting background. The role will involve supporting operational estates teams directly, helping resolve difficult compliance situations, improving governance processes and supporting healthcare contracts operationally across a large portfolio.
Candidates could come from a range of backgrounds including:
Senior Authorising Engineer (Water)
Responsible Person Water
Water Compliance Manager
Water Safety Manager
Technical Compliance Manager
Operational Healthcare Estates
Specialist Water Governance / Healthcare Compliance
AP Water / Senior RP Water looking to step into a broader operational governance role
Strong healthcare exposure is essential. Individuals with backgrounds across NHS estates, healthcare FM, PFI healthcare environments, specialist healthcare water consultancies or operational healthcare compliance environments are all highly relevant.
The organisation is open to speaking with both established AE(W) professionals and strong operationally-focused individuals progressing into broader governance leadership positions.
The role offers the opportunity to work across a major healthcare estate portfolio with significant operational influence, technical ownership and long-term progression potential within a highly specialised area of the market.
