Are you a highly skilled mechanical and electrical engineer, with experience in building services operation and maintenance? If so, this could be the perfect role for you.

We are looking for an M&E Maintenance Engineer to join our Estates team. You will have the opportunity to manage the operation and maintenance of mechanical and electrical services throughout the University estate.

The role is ideally suited to an engineer with both mechanical and electrical experience; however, if you have experience in one of those but also possess a specialty in legionella control, electrical installation and distribution, or pressure systems, we would be very interested in your application.

The Campus Services Department comprises a high-performing team of estate professionals that continues to manage and develop a high-quality estate. The University has an ongoing commitment to invest in its estate through a capital plan which entails the completion of a number of multi-million pound projects, both new build and refurbishment, together with a host of minor capital and revenue projects.

The Maintenance function is well established with significant growth planned in staff numbers to support both recent and planned growth, including the addition of a Medical School and approximately 3,000 new bed spaces.

The University of Lincoln offers exciting career opportunities with the chance to grow and develop to reach your full potential. We also offer a wide range of staff benefits, including a generous annual leave allowance of 30 days per year pro rata (plus an additional 14 bank holiday and concessionary days), progressive pay rates, and access to discounts at popular stores.
