Role Purpose

To ensure all mechanical and electrical systems and contractual assets are maintained in optimal working order, fully compliant with contractual obligations, statutory legislation, and best practice standards.

Key Responsibilities Ensure all contractual assets and mechanical and electrical systems are maintained and operate efficiently through effective Planned Preventative Maintenance (PPM) in line with prescribed schedules. Respond promptly to all reported failures and faults, taking appropriate corrective action to restore systems to full operational service within contractual requirements. Ensure all completed faults and failures are formally closed within agreed timescales and contractual standards. Carry out all work activities in strict accordance with current Health and Safety legislation and company procedures. Support the management team in reducing utilities consumption through daily monitoring of the Building Management System (BMS), applying engineering knowledge and best practice. Attend regular meetings with site management to report on performance, including faults, failures, PPM completion, subcontractor performance, health and safety, lifecycle planning, and utilities usage. Participate in the out-of-hours standby and callout rota on a rotational basis, including Bank Holidays. Maintain full statutory compliance in accordance with PPM schedules and SFG20 requirements. Conduct weekly testing of life safety systems, including fire alarms and life-sign monitoring systems. Report all faults or failures relating to contractual assets and M&E systems to the management team and confirm rectification with the Premises Manager. Coordinate and schedule subcontractors to attend site at least one month in advance of their PPM visits and act as the primary on-site contact. Provide the Premises Manager with engineers' worksheets, supplier delivery notes, and escalate any abnormalities or additional works identified by subcontractors to the Account Manager. Supply the Facilities Management (FM) team with accurate electronic information, including supplier details, part numbers, descriptions, quantities, and costs, to facilitate timely purchase order processing. Provide monthly utilities meter readings to the Premises Manager. Ensure on-site storage areas are kept clean, tidy, and well organised; ensure work areas are left clean following self-delivered works and that subcontractors do the same. Assist in the preparation of additional works quotations to support Authority Variation Requests (AVRs) within contractual timeframes. Support the Account Manager and Facilities Manager with additional duties as required to ensure effective contract delivery. Undertake any other duties across the PFI Portfolio as requested by the company.
