Oxford, United Kingdom Airbus Full time

**About our team...**

Airbus Helicopters is the world’s largest helicopter manufacturer and the company’s site at Oxford Airport is Britain’s civil helicopter hub.

AHUK is the MoD’s chosen provider of helicopters and maintenance for its Defence Helicopter Flying school (referred to as MFTS) located in RAF Shawbury (Shropshire) and RAF Valley (Anglesey).

**PLEASE NOTE - It is AHUK policy to require all applicants to demonstrate they have the right to remain and to work in the UK.**

**Description/Overall purpose of the Job**

As this position is a customer facing role, you will be have previous experience working in a similar environment, being able to prioritise and manage customer expectations is key. This will involve being practical and pragmatic, and at times being ‘hands on’ when something on site needs to be sorted out quickly.

We manage the Oxford buildings directly through contractors, and the other sites via a network of colleagues and service providers.

As well as the day to day issues, we have a regular programme of servicing and training events throughout the year which need to be booked and managed for and with colleagues and suppliers. The person will be able to set up and maintain spreadsheet databases for these, and be confident in managing and changing bookings.

We don’t have a typical day, but the workplace is interesting and we are always busy. We manage most of the things on the sites that are not actually to do with working on the aircraft - everything from vending machines to EV charging points, first aid training to fire alarm testing, waste disposal to cleaning supplies.

The Facilities Assistant will be an integral part of the team and will be able to make a proactive contribution to the smooth running of the background activities that allow AHUK to operate effectively.

**Main Duties**:

- Processing daily requisitions and purchase orders
- Managing the supplier database; construction, engineering and H&S items and goods.
- Handling of invoices.
- Taking delivery of, unloading and checking of certain items.
- Key management.
- Facilitating day to day aspects of security cards
- Dealing with various health, safety and environmental related tasks: record keeping; managing and updating databases; training refreshers and booking of courses.
- Arranging and Escorting visitors and contractors around the site.
- Occasional assistance with setting up the hangar for customer events.
- Assisting with vehicle management.
- Testing of fire alarms and fire drill practice.
- Responding to varied emergency situations.
- Ad hoc tasks as directed.

**Key Knowledge and Skills**:
**Essential**
- Previous experience in a customer facing, hands-on role.
- Familiarity with an engineering environment useful but not essential.
- Familiarity with health safety and environmental procedures.
- Good general educational level
- Excellent working knowledge of spreadsheets and presentations ideally to a intermediate level

**Desirable**
- NEBOSH Health and Safety or environmental accredited would be desirable
- Experience with Google Suite

**Additional experience require**:

- Proven hands-on work experience in a similar role.
- Occasional lone working

**Other requirements**:

- A DBS and Security Clearance (or the ability to achieve one) is required for this position owing to AHUK Security requirements.
- Participation in on call roster
- Full UK driving licence.

This job requires an awareness of any potential compliance risks and a commitment to act with integrity, as the foundation for the Company’s success, reputation and sustainable growth.
