The role involves being present on-site to monitor critical infrastructure and ensure smooth daily operations, with a focus on BMS alarm monitoring, site walk-rounds, and first-response escalation.

Conduct routine site walk-rounds to check building infrastructure, equipment status, and critical systems.
Log faults, hazards, and general observations clearly and communicate issues to the on-call engineering team.
Assist with basic operational tasks in support of the core engineering staff.
Maintain compliance with site safety procedures, security controls, and health & safety practices.
Liaise with subcontractors and other personnel where required, ensuring smooth shift handovers.
Requirements:
Active SC Clearance - this is mandatory for access to the site.
Ideally qualified in either electrical or mechanical (HVAC) engineering (e.g. City & Guilds, NVQ, or equivalent).
Experience working in critical environments (data centres, secure government buildings, hospitals, etc.).
Familiarity with BMS systems and escalation protocols.
Comfortable working independently during night or day shifts.
Professional, reliable, and safety-conscious.
