We are recruiting for a Commercial Gas Engineer with a strong mechanical background to join a leading facilities management provider.

Your responsibilities will include:
* Mechanical Plant Maintenance:
Servicing pumps, valves, calorifiers, pressurisation units, and associated pipework.
* Commercial Heating:
Fault-finding on wet systems, radiators, and heating circuits.

Once you have your Commercial Gas tickets (e.g., COCN1 / CODCN1), you will service gas-fired appliances and boilers under the guidance of the team.
* General Maintenance:
Safety checks and plant room inspections.

To be considered for this Commercial Gas Engineer position, you do not need years of commercial experience, but you must be mechanically competent.

Strong background in Plumbing, Heating, or Mechanical Plant (NVQ Level 2/3 preferable).

* Experience:
Previous experience working in commercial plant rooms is highly preferred.
* Full UK Driving Licence.

Structured support to transition you into a experienced and confident Commercial Gas Engineer.
