Today UCL has over 50,000 students and 15,00 staff and is one of the world’s top 10 universities.

The UCL Estates Operations team manages a property portfolio of over 645,000m2 of diverse real estate on behalf of UCL, supporting over 48,000 student and nearly 15,000 staff.

The Estates Maintenance Operations team provides a comprehensive on-call service both responding to emergencies but also undertaking works where access is a problem during normal hours.

**The working hours for this role are Monday - Friday 8.00-16.30.**

**About you**:
Previous experience of working in maintenance operations as a Multi-skilled trade operative is essential, preferably in a higher education institution or comparable environment. You’ll be confident, organised and able to work under pressure, prioritise work tasks and be able to communicate with stakeholders as well as our own engineering staff.

You will have a broad technical knowledge of mechanical/electrical and HVAC systems with advanced problem-solving skills. You will have an in-depth knowledge of legislation and a working knowledge of H&S.
