You will work closely with engineering, operations, contractors and service providers to minimise disruption to railway activities and maintain a clean, compliant and fully functional depot environment.

Key responsibilities will include scheduling and monitoring planned preventative maintenance; responding to facilities defects and coordinating corrective actions; managing contractor attendance, permits, access arrangements and work completion records; and maintaining accurate asset, inspection and compliance documentation. You will undertake regular site inspections, identify risks and escalate issues appropriately, including matters relating to fire safety, utilities, heating, ventilation, lighting, drainage, security and general building services. The role will also support audits, emergency preparedness, environmental initiatives and continuous improvement projects, while ensuring that all activities comply with relevant railway standards, health and safety legislation and local procedures.

Applicants should have experience in facilities management, building services, depot operations or a comparable maintenance environment. A practical understanding of planned and reactive maintenance, contractor control, risk assessment and statutory compliance is essential. Experience working in a transport, industrial or safety-critical setting would be advantageous. You will need strong organisational and communication skills, the ability to prioritise competing demands and confidence working with internal teams and external suppliers. A proactive approach, attention to detail and commitment to safe working practices are required. Relevant technical, facilities or health and safety qualifications are desirable, as is familiarity with maintenance management systems and standard office software. The position may require occasional flexible working, site access at operational hours and participation in an out-of-hours response arrangement.
