Senior Technician - Specialist Services Electrical

We're looking for an experienced Senior Electrical Technician to join our Estates Team at Sheffield's Northern General Hospital.

Estates plays a crucial role in keeping our hospitals and services running. From essential power, Distribution and Alarm systems, to the inside and outside of our buildings and grounds, Estates staff make sure these are safe and well-maintained for our patients, visitors, and other staff.

Our staff have a wide range of expertise and skills - from construction trades and technical skills, building and site management, surveying, and more. Together they carry out vital inspections, maintenance, and repairs across our sites, so that we can keep giving excellent care to our patients.

This is a hands-on role where you'll be responsible for the day-to-day management, administration, and workload of various operational and reactive engineering staff within Estates. You'll also manage and supervise external engineering contractors, to ensure works are completed on time and to agreed standards.

You'll need to be highly experienced within your trade, as well as have the management, people and communication skills needed to lead an effective team.
