* Career Mentorship: Work under a supportive Facilities Manager dedicated to your professional development.

Compliance & Safety (Full Training Provided)
* Conduct weekly fire alarm testing and monthly emergency lighting checks.
* Maintain accurate compliance records and digital maintenance logs.
* Assist the Facilities Manager with health & safety audits and tasks.
General Site Upkeep
* Perform basic plumbing fixes, including leaks, taps, and blockages.

* Monitor plant rooms and proactively flag potential issues to management.
What We Are Looking For
* Qualifications: An electrical qualification (City & Guilds 2365, NVQ Level 2/3, or equivalent)—candidates currently working toward these are encouraged to apply.
* Experience: Some commercial or trade experience, even if in the early stages of your career.
* Independence: Comfortable working independently and traveling across different sites in Central London.
* Proactive Mindset: Good communication skills and a "can‑do" attitude toward problem‑solving.
* Reliability: Able to work afternoons, evenings, and weekends consistently.
* Licensing: 18th Edition (BS 7671) qualification is highly desirable but not essential.
The Detail
* Salary: £28,000 – £35,000 depending on experience.
* Type: Permanent, Full‑Time.
* Transport: Public transport is the primary mode of travel (a driving licence is a bonus, not a requirement).
Please note: This role is specifically for individuals with a genuine electrical background looking to grow into a well‑rounded commercial facilities career; it is not suitable for general DIY or domestic handyman work.
