About The Role

We are seeking an experience HVAC Technician to join our Estates Service team, supporting the safe, reliable and efficient operation of heating, ventilation and air-conditioning systems across a complex multi-use university estate.

You’ll have a recognised apprenticeship or equivalent Level 3 qualification, strong fault-finding capability, and a good working knowledge of relevant health, safety and environmental legislation.
 
You’ll be organised, practical and safety-focused, with the ability to manage your own workload, communicate clearly, and maintain accurate records. Experience of working in a customer-facing estates environment, and confidence using CAFM systems, would be an advantage.
