Cambridge, Cambridgeshire, United Kingdom University of Cambridge Full time

An opportunity has arisen for a Building Services Technician to join our friendly, busy, facilities team in the Department of Physiology, Development and Neuroscience, providing an efficient and reliable service to our buildings located in central Cambridge.

The role holder will provide day to day maintenance across our two buildings which consist of laboratories, classrooms, offices and lecture theatres. The role holder will support the team with planned and reactive maintenance of our buildings to ensure the provision of a safe, legal and compliant working environment. This will include the maintenance and monitoring of heating, plumbing, and ventilation systems, dealing with gas canisters, general building infrastructure repairs, assisting with the installation of equipment, electrical testing and portering.
