37 hours per week
Trinity House works for the benefit and safety of all mariners as a General Lighthouse Authority and maritime charity. Our people are central to our reputation as a leading maritime organisation, as is our commitment as an employer to developing the skills, capabilities and potential of our workforce.
This is an exciting opportunity to be part of a technical team responsible for the maintenance and repair of our aids to navigation, lighthouses, and other installations. You will be working on a wide range of electronic, electrical and mechanical systems and equipment. The working environments can vary from land-based installations to those that are offshore, many requiring access over rough ground. Given the location of the stations, you will be spending significant time away from home, working and living in close proximity of your work colleagues. This, coupled with the physical nature of the duties involved, calls for appropriate levels of health and fitness. Modes of transport to access the installations can be a combination of road transport, boat and helicopter.
Skills and Experience
1. A good level of experience in a technical maintenance/installation role.
2. Experienced in the maintenance of PLC based control systems.
3. An appropriate level of practical training as provided by a craft apprenticeship.
4. Expansive knowledge of electronic fault finding to component level.
5. Knowledge of Health & Safety regulations and Electricity at Work regulations desirable.
Qualifications
1. A level 3 qualification in a relevant electronic-based discipline or suitable experience.
2. Full driving licence.
We have two vacancies within our team based at St Just. One will be focused on Control and Communications and the other will be focused on Electrical.
We welcome qualified individuals to apply and we look forward to reviewing your applications for this exciting opportunity. We are committed to equity within a respectful, diverse and inclusive environment.
