Are you an electrically biased engineer with experience across Building Management Systems, looking for a role where you can genuinely become a technical specialist rather than just another maintenance technician?

This is a rare opportunity to step into a highly technical controls environment within a globally recognised institution, where your development is actively invested in, your expertise is valued, and your progression is genuinely mapped out.

This is a fantastic chance to become part of a prestigious organisation renowned for engineering excellence, research, and innovation. Supporting a large and diverse estate, you will play a key role in maintaining and optimising critical building infrastructure that underpins world‑class teaching and research.

You’ll be joining a close‑knit, highly skilled engineering team responsible for maintaining and optimising a large and complex estate – where no two days are the same, and your work directly impacts building performance, energy efficiency, and the day‑to‑day experience of thousands of students and staff.

If you’re looking for a role where you can step away from repetitive reactive maintenance and move into more advanced BMS control, fault finding, and optimisation work, this is exactly that step up.

• Own planned preventative maintenance (PPM) and reactive fault finding across campus BMS systems
• Diagnose and repair faults across HVAC, heating, ventilation and air conditioning systems
• Work hands‑on with TREND and Niagara 4 systems to monitor and optimise performance
• Respond to live alarms and system data, prioritising critical issues in real time
• Support and supervise external contractors when required
• Maintain accurate system data, backups, and asset information

• Electrically biased engineer or technician with experience in Building Management Systems (BMS)
• Strong understanding of HVAC systems and building services controls
• Experience with TREND, Niagara 4 or similar BMS platforms
• Confident fault‑finder using schematics, data and logical diagnosis
• Comfortable working in live, occupied environments
• Basic understanding of networking (Ethernet/IP advantageous)
• Strong communicator who can work with both engineers and non‑technical stakeholders
• A genuine interest in developing into more advanced controls / systems engineering
• Qualified in Electrical / Building Services (HNC / City & Guilds or equivalent desirable)
