Your role
The role of Senior Station Technician is focused for those individuals with an NVQ L4/SVQ L5 in an engineering discipline or time served engineering apprenticeship or sound background and experience in mechanical electrical or electronic engineering.
If these qualifications or experience is not held then suitable individuals may be offered a Station Technician role in lieu.
In either role most of your time will be spent ensuring that the A85, Trent class and soon to be a Shannon lifeboat is kept in the best possible condition. You will also ensure that the Lifeboat Station functions on a day-to-day basis. You will be involved in training volunteer crew members - so that when an emergency shout does occur, you, your crew, and your lifeboat will be absolutely prepared.
Your role will include:
- Inspiring and motivating your team; managing their progress by leading them on seagoing exercises, conducting shore-based training, identifying ways they can improve and imparting your valuable knowledge
- Meeting and talking to the general public about your station’s work
- Taking a lead on Quality, Safety, Health, and Environment issues, helping to develop a positive culture within the station
- Spending time in the day to day running of the Lifeboat Station; this may be in the form of answering e-mails, ensuring maintenance records are maintained or updating the station’s monthly assurance report.
About you
You’ll have the ability to build effective relationships with volunteers at the lifeboat station, the supporters locally and RNLI staff beyond, while acting as an ambassador for the station and the RNLI within the community.
To be considered for the role of Senior Station Technician at Hartlepool Lifeboat Station you will need:
- To be a passed-out RNLI ALB Mechanic or relevant experience to achieve competence in a timely manner.
- To demonstrate leadership and management qualities, and the ability to motivate and maximise people’s potential.
- Experience of fulfilling a Lifeboat Mechanic role or equivalent, with the capacity and willingness to develop skills in other areas of seagoing duties.
- Knowledge and experience of the operation, maintenance and repair of marine diesels would be desirable, an engineering background and mindset is essential.
- This is an emergency response role so the successful candidates would need to live within 8 minutes of the station and be prepared to respond to a pager 24/7 whilst on duty.
