Mechanical & Electrical Maintenance Engineer
The Brighton i360 is a leading visitor attraction in Brighton, offering unique experiences for guests of all ages. We aim to create unforgettable moments by delivering world-class service, innovative experiences, and seamless operations.
The Mechanical and Electrical Engineer at Brighton i360 is responsible for ensuring the safe and efficient operation of all mechanical and electrical systems on-site. This includes the vertical cable car, security systems, heating/cooling (HVAC), audio-visual systems, and fire and access control systems. The role involves daily operational checks, planned maintenance, troubleshooting faults, and liaising with third-party contractors to uphold the highest standards of safety, reliability, and performance.
This position requires a proactive and adaptable engineer who thrives in a dynamic environment, collaborates effectively with internal teams, and demonstrates a strong problem-solving aptitude.
Salary: £35,000 - £40,000 + Bonus
Key Responsibilities
Your roles will include but are not limited to:
* Maintain all mechanical and electrical equipment at the site, liaising with third-party suppliers where appropriate, including (but not limited to) the vertical cable car, CCTV, heating/cooling (HVAC), AV/sound system, fire systems, intruder alarm systems, access control system, etc.
* Complete daily start-up checks and cleaning for the vertical cable car before the start of daily operations (including climbing ladders to reach the basement or top of the tower).
* Support the Facilities and Maintenance manager with the management of key third-party facilities contracts to ensure compliance with service level agreements.
* Collaborate with the Operational team, Sales team, and Procurement Manager to ensure smooth operation.
* Assist in monitoring all faults and any ride downtime.
* Assist with the completion of the preventative maintenance schedule.
* This list is not exhaustive. We are a small ‘start-up’ team, and the role may evolve over time. A flexible and willing attitude is vital.
* React well under pressure and stay calm and rational in emergency situations.
* Learn new systems, understand technical manuals, enjoy technical problem-solving, and be an expert in systems.
* Be a team player with great communication skills, with a hands-on attitude, willing to help out to ensure the venue stays open and operations run smoothly.
* Be a self-starter who can work without direct day-to-day supervision, but also work effectively with colleagues.
* A full passport with the right to travel to Europe without needing a visa.
* This role requires a high level of physical fitness, as it involves manual handling and climbing on ladders. Therefore, you will be required to pass a fitness test, occupational health screening, and medical assessment.
Behaviours
* Calm Under Pressure – Ability to stay composed and take logical action in emergency situations.
* Technical Curiosity & Problem Solving – Aptitude to learn new systems, interpret technical manuals, and resolve issues efficiently.
