3 weeks ago


Preston, United Kingdom Lancashire Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust Full time

Job summary

We need a dedicated Electrician based at Royal Preston Hospital to join our team to help keep our hospital environment safe, operational, and supporting the health and well being of our patients, staff and visitors - day in day out. No mean feat We really mean it when we say no two days are the same - it is a blend of planned maintenance coupled with emergency repairs and everything in between.

You will also work across some of our other hospitals sites too, so whilst primarily based at Royal Preston Hospital you will get out there to other sites at Chorley Hospital, Preston Business Centre and beyond.

This role will involve a 7-week rotating shifts, that will involve Days, Evenings, Nights and Weekends.

Main duties of the job

The Bottom Line - What Do you Receive?

Salary:

The NHS Band for this position is Band 4 which for regular hours works out at £25,147 rising to £27,596 pa (after 3 years).

However, as a Shift Electrician working for our Trust and with the RRP included, based on our current shift pattern this equates to approx. £32,100 to £35,000 (after 3 years) pa.

On top of this there may be irregular overtime opportunities throughout the year. Also within the benefits is optional inclusion into one of the best pension packages available.

We cannot even begin to tell you what a great place this is to work, with so many interesting and intricate engineering systems that you just won't find anywhere else - so much different to day to day installation works and working on cold wet construction sites. You will demonstrate a good working knowledge of electrical systems in compliance with all statutory requirements and good practice guidelines - it's likely you will be able to teach us a thing or two

Owing to the skills and experience you possess, this is without supervision as we trust you to be in charge of your own work activity. Many of the repairs will need to be attended to urgently and some aspects of the work can be hazardous but this will be a walk in the park for you.

About us

We have 10,000 fantastic people working hard to deliver quality services to our patients. Whatever your role, you help look after 370,000 people in our local area & give specialist care to million people across Lancashire & Cumbria.

Working with us gives you the knowledge and sense of pride that every activity you do genuinely does make a difference to support our patients & staff, ensuring we keep thriving & delivering outstanding healthcare right across our local towns.

You'll have access to varied development opportunities, learn new skills, meet fab people & do things you'd never have done. You'll learn about working in a hospital, interacting with people from all different roles to build skills & enhance your career path.

You'll make an impact, be challenged to think differently, be bold & help innovate to keep improving things. Everything we do centres around patient care which means your role is pivotal and something really to be proud of.
