Position Overview

This position is responsible for executing maintenance, validation, testing, and servicing of various decontamination apparatus, including washer disinfectors, sterilizers, endoscope washer disinfectors, and ultrasonic devices.

  • Perform routine maintenance and repairs independently as per your trade qualifications when necessary.
  • Execute tasks as delegated by Works officers, Scheduler, or Helpdesk, while collaborating effectively with other trades and offering assistance when needed.
  • Oversee contractors, including drafting specifications and conducting quality assurance or clerk of works activities.
  • Engage in continuous professional development and training to enhance skills, capabilities, and knowledge in crafts and engineering.
  • Mentor and support craftspersons in their roles, fostering their development for future technician positions.
  • Supervise the training and development of apprentices, ensuring they gain relevant experience in their primary and secondary trades for effective progression.
