Electrical Maintenance Technician - Mansfield

Hello, we’re Severn Trent and we think water is wonderful. Oh, we’re pretty keen on people too.

24 hours a day, 365 days a year we serve 4.8 million households and businesses across the heart of the UK. Each cuppa drank and every toilet flushed is only possible because of the 6,500 brilliant team members working across our patch.

We welcome people from all walks of life and celebrate individuality. We know diverse minds, experiences and backgrounds help us to learn and better serve our customers and the communities where they live.

If you want to do more because you care, we’d love to talk to you. There really is something for everyone here.

EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW

Our Waste Water Recycling team have a great opportunity for you to join as our new Electrical Maintenance Technician.

The position offers an opportunity to be part of a forward-thinking team working on a variety of equipment and assets, where you will have the opportunity to embrace curiosity and develop new skills outside of your normal day-to-day activities.

• Proactively and reactively maintain the electrical assets onsite.
• Reacting to failures and planned improvement works across the area on sewage pumping stations and sewage treatment works.
• Carrying out service and replacement of assets: pump motors, electrical circuitry components, contactors, overloads, slip ring assemblies, telemetry outstations, variable speed drives, and motor control circuits.
• Supporting the local maintenance teams, carrying out planned and breakdown maintenance activity on electromechanical wastewater assets.
• Undertake fault diagnostics and have the ability to resolve issues in a timely manner.
• Completion of electrical inspections and testing.
• Interpret and update electrical drawings.
• Supporting the Design and Build of new processes.
• Timely feedback on work carried out on a daily basis.
• Monitor treatment processes using SCADA system and act on alarms as required.

You will be based at our Sewage Treatment Works in Mansfield, and will be provided with a vehicle for business use, laptop, safety clothing, and tools appropriate to the job.

As part of your ongoing professional development, you will be required to upskill as a LV/HV SAP which will come with an additional allowance on top of your basic salary.

So, if you care about the environment, are curious about how things work, and have the courage to challenge ways of working, we are absolutely certain you will be proud to work for Severn Trent.

WHAT YOU’LL BRING TO THE ROLE

Along with your experience, you must hold…

• 18th Edition Electrical Regulations and ongoing new additions.
• A full UK driving licence will be required for the role.

You’ll be expected to know how to work with process control systems and have a working knowledge of industrial electrical installation requirements and standards. In Severn Trent, we use a number of different devices on the job so your experience working with various IT systems will be great.

You must have sound diagnostic and problem-solving skills. Basic instrumentation skills are desirable but not essential as there will be an opportunity to upskill and develop a second skill set.

WHAT’S IN IT FOR YOU

Working here isn’t just a job. You can build a career at Severn Trent. We’ll reward you for it, too. We have a range of benefits that recognise great work, and award-winning training to help you reach your potential. And we’ll also help you play your part in looking after the environment and the communities where we live.

With that in mind, here are just some of our favourite perks that you’ll get being part of the Severn Trent family:

• Starting salary of £38,573.
• 25 days holiday + bank holidays (and the ability to buy/sell up to 5 days per year).
• Annual bonus scheme (of up to £1,500, which is subject to eligibility).
• Leading pension scheme – we will double your contribution (up to 15% when you contribute 7.5%).
• Sharesave – the chance to buy Severn Trent Plc shares at a discounted rate.
• Dedicated training and development with our Academy.
• Electric vehicle scheme and retail offers.
• Family friendly policies.
• Two paid volunteering days per year.
