About the Role

As an experienced MSE, you will be a key member of the Estates & Facilities Maintenance team, working across complex engineering plant and systems to ensure the hospital sites remain safe, compliant and fully operational.

  • Completing risk assessments for medium- and high-risk tasks and ensuring compliance with statutory standards and policies
  • Supporting installations, refurbishments and building fabric works
  • Liaising with colleagues, contractors and clinical teams to maintain continuity of patient care
  • Participating in the on-call rota and emergency response, including fire alarms, lift entrapments and critical plant failures

Essential Criteria:

  • A recognised apprenticeship or equivalent qualification in electrical or mechanical engineering (ONC/HNC or equivalent plus relevant experience)
  • Strong practical experience across a broad range of estates plant and building services
  • Excellent technical knowledge, the ability to interpret schematics, and confidence working independently
  • Strong communication skills and the ability to prioritise effectively under pressure
  • Willingness to work in hazardous areas, undertake physically demanding tasks, and travel across Trust sites

What's On Offer:

  • Competitive salary and on-call allowances
  • Ongoing professional development and high-quality training opportunities
  • A supportive, forward-thinking team environment
  • The chance to make a meaningful impact on patient care through the reliability of hospital infrastructure
