Support and enforce safe systems of work, permit to work, LOTO, confined space, and other high-hazard controls across all shift activities
Monitor and report on Facilities KPIs including PPM compliance, breakdown response times, and backlog, identifying and driving improvement actions
Liaise closely with the Facilities Manager, EHS, Manufacturing, and R&M teams to ensure Facilities service delivery meets site and customer needs
Lead or support routine testing and compliance activity on life safety systems, including sprinkler and fire alarm systems, and other statutory plant
Identify, coach, and close out skills and knowledge gaps within the team through structured mentoring and on-the-job training
Support recruitment, onboarding, and induction of new shift technicians and apprentices
Deputise for the Facilities Manager as required, including representation at meetings

What you will need

Recognised craft/technical qualification (electrical, mechanical, or multi-skilled) with a strong working knowledge of facilities plant, BMS systems, and critical utilities in a manufacturing or process environment
Proven experience supervising or leading a shift-based maintenance or facilities technician team, ideally within a semiconductor, pharmaceutical, or other high-hazard/regulated site
Strong understanding of safe systems of work, permit to work, and statutory compliance requirements (e.g. PSSR, DSEAR/ATEX, life safety systems)
Demonstrated ability to plan and prioritise resource across competing planned and reactive workloads
Confident communicator, comfortable liaising across Manufacturing, EHS, and senior Facilities leadership
A genuine coaching and mentoring mindset, with a track record of developing technicians and apprentices
