Are you a qualified Plumber with Gas Safe certification looking for a stable maintenance role with excellent benefits and long-term job security?

Do you want to work on a single, well-maintained site where you can enjoy a great work-life balance, a supportive team, and the opportunity to work across a diverse range of buildings?

This prestigious university is renowned for its high-quality facilities and continued investment in its estate. With a varied portfolio of academic buildings, student accommodation, laboratories, offices, and public spaces, they are looking to recruit a skilled Plumbing Maintenance Engineer to join their experienced Estates team.

In this role, you will carry out planned preventative and reactive maintenance across plumbing, heating, gas, and mechanical systems. You'll also support minor installation and refurbishment projects, fault finding, and system improvements, helping to ensure the university's buildings remain safe, compliant, and fully operational.
