Your New Role
We have a fantastic opportunity for a permanent General Building Engineer to join our Ministry of Justice (MoJ) account in HMP Sudbury, this role is based on-site.
There may be a need to work some weekends but this would be on a rota basis (and with an additional allowance of 15% of basic salary).
At Amey, we're supporting our justice client, His Majesty's Prison and Probation Service (HMPPS) by providing them with safe, clean and efficient prisons.
General Building Engineer plays an important part in ensuring the planned and reactive maintenance work within the prisons is carried out in a safe, compliant and timely manner.
The standard hours of work are 39 hours per week (across 7 days where a weekend shift pattern is in place).

You will be responsible for:

• Raise, update and close remedial tasks within the Computer Aided Facilities Management (CAFM) system.
• Ensure all critical parts are available for statutory tasks.
• Carry out general and semi-skilled maintenance activities.
• Undertake general tasks associated with security systems such as CCTV and alarm systems.
• Carry out monthly checks and tests of fire extinguisher equipment, with regular checks on fire hydrants and fire hoses.
• Complete RCD testing on a quarterly basis.
• Carry out checks on Misting Units.
• Undertake fire door maintenance activities.
• Conduct flushing and tap temperature tests as required by the water risk assessment.
• Undertake monthly and annual emergency lighting checks.
• Check and test smoke vents as required.
• Any other duties commensurate with the role.

What makes this role unique is you will work alongside the engineers in all maintenance across the site as well as working independently. Prison Security Clearance will be required (Amey will support you through this process).

• Experience in Fire Door Maintenance
• Experience in Fire Extinguisher Maintenance
• Experience in Fire Alarm Core Points
• Experience in Emergency Lighting
• Experience in RCD
• Experience in Water Temperature Testing

Ideally you will be qualified in multiple areas of maintenance as outlined above with experience in general building maintenance. In addition to this, it would be desirable if you have experience of working within a custodial environment with basic Health and Safety knowledge and exposure to building and system compliance, although this is not essential as we will provide you with the required development you need to bring you up to speed.

What we offer you:

• Career Development: Exceptional development and progression plan.
• Pension: Generous Pension scheme which we will contribute to.
• Holidays: Minimum 24 days holiday + Bank Holidays.
