Maintenance Technician (Electrical)

Location: Hawkshead (nr Potters Bar, Herts)

On-Call Allowance

An exciting opportunity has arisen within our Estates Department for a Maintenance Technician (Electrical) to provide a professional planned and reactive electrical maintenance service across our Hawkshead Campus.

This important role helps ensure our busy hospitals, laboratories, accommodation, offices and teaching spaces remain safe, compliant and fully operational at all times. We are looking for someone with strong technical knowledge of electrical systems, installations and equipment, together with the ability to diagnose faults and undertake repairs to a high standard.

This role demands a flexible approach to work and will require the successful candidate undertake training as required and occasionally work at our Camden Campus when operationally necessary. You will also be required to participate in the Out of Hours maintenance rota to ensure emergency maintenance support is available outside normal working hours.

In return, we offer a generous reward package and benefits including:

• Competitive and attractive pension package
• Generous 30 days annual leave (plus bank holidays + concessionary days)
• Access to free in-house CPD and funded external CPD
• A range of family friendly policies, including adoption, maternity and paternity pay and leave
