The Engineering Team, made up of approximately 56 full-time staff, provides support across three critical sites, each housing a mix of office space, production environments, and data centre infrastructure. These require 24/7/365 engineering support due to the critical nature of the systems in place.

  • Collaborate with OEM contractors during routine and emergency maintenance tasks.
  • Provide accurate updates and input to assist the Shift Leader with daily handover reports.
  • Operate as an Authorised Person (AP) for low voltage electrical and/or mechanical systems under the Bank’s Safe System of Work (SSoW).
  • Complete all required training, assessments, and performance objectives annually.
  • Promote a culture of Health & Safety, acting as a site safety ambassador.
  • Ensure service levels and compliance standards are consistently met or exceeded.
  • Support a team-oriented environment with a focus on continuous improvement.
  • Participate in the weekly on-call rota and contribute to incident response exercises.

Essential Qualifications & Certifications

  • IOSH Managing Safely (or willingness to achieve).
  • Security Check (SC) Clearance eligibility (sponsored by the Bank).

Technical Experience

  • Experience using IWMS platforms (preferably Planon) and HMI handheld devices.
  • In-depth knowledge of HVAC, BMS, electrical, public health, and life safety systems.
  • Prior experience as an Authorised Person (AP) for HV or LV systems.
  • Familiarity with formal Safe Systems of Work.
  • Strong understanding of statutory obligations and compliance for building infrastructure.
  • Ability to read and interpret MEP drawings and system schematics.
