We are currently recruiting for an experienced Senior Site Technician to join a leading facilities management operation supporting a large, highly automated site in the East Midlands.
This is a hands-on supervisory position, with a minimum of 50% of your time spent carrying out planned and reactive maintenance. You will act as the first point of contact for maintenance issues on site, while supervising a small engineering team and supporting the wider site management function.

- Diagnose faults and carry out repairs across electrical, mechanical, pneumatic and automated systems.
- Supervise and support a team of site technicians and maintenance operatives.
- Ensure all PPM, reactive and compliance tasks are completed within agreed timescales.
- Maintain accurate maintenance records and ensure documentation is completed and uploaded correctly.
- Monitor outstanding jobs and ensure 100% site compliance is maintained.
- Work closely with site operations and third-party logistics teams to coordinate maintenance activities.
- Respond promptly to service calls and arrange specialist contractor attendance where required.
- Carry out minor installations, alterations and improvement works within your level of competence.
- Identify recurring or non-repairable faults and provide recommendations for remedial works or replacement.
- Manage site stock and ensure appropriate levels of critical spares are maintained.
- Support site meetings and communicate maintenance requirements to customers and management.
- Promote safe working practices and ensure all works comply with current Health & Safety legislation.
- Ensure maintenance activities are recorded in real time using the site's CAFM system.
- Support the development and training of junior engineers and technicians.
- Participate in a 24/7 call-out and standby rota.
- Maintain strong working relationships with both customers and colleagues.
