Excellent opportunity for a commercial plumber to join a leading research facility offering an incredible working environment and outstanding training to help you develop your mechanical and engineering skills.

This organisation is part of a renowned scientific research group, operating across multiple sites and supporting world-leading research. Due to continued investment, they are looking to recruit a Maintenance Engineer to join their Estates and Facilities team.

In this role, you’ll start by carrying out general plumbing and mechanical duties around the building, supporting day-to-day maintenance and minor repairs. As you receive ongoing training and development, you’ll gradually take on more responsibility, moving into a role where you’ll deliver planned and reactive maintenance across a range of mechanical plant systems including steam boilers, HVAC systems, and other essential infrastructure.

You’ll also be trained to monitor and maintain systems using the Building Management System (BMS), ensuring the smooth operation of facilities across the site. In time, you’ll take part in an on-call rota (approximately 6-8 weeks per year) to help maintain 24/7 operational readiness.

The ideal candidate will be a qualified commercial plumber holding recognised plumbing or mechanical qualifications such as NVQ Level 3 in Plumbing or Building Services Engineering. You’ll be enthusiastic about learning and developing technically, with a proactive attitude toward gaining new skills. Candidates who have recently completed their apprenticeship are strongly encouraged to apply.

This is an excellent opportunity for a plumber who wants to expand their technical knowledge and gain experience working with complex mechanical and engineering systems.
