Working as part of a small and collaborative team, you will play a hands-on role in maintaining the fabric of the site, responding to defects, and ensuring that essential services remain reliable. This role is critical in supporting operational performance, safety standards and compliance across the site.
This is what you’ll actually do!
As a Site Services Technician, you’ll be responsible for maintaining and repairing the building fabric, fixtures and fittings across the site, ensuring issues are resolved quickly and safely to minimise disruption to production.

Working closely with external contractors and visitors, you’ll support the coordination of work on site, ensuring all activities are carried out safely and in line with company standards. You’ll also maintain control of company tools and equipment, ensuring they are used and stored appropriately.
Alongside reactive work, you’ll support the completion of planned tasks, including SHE-related activities and pest control (Rokill) actions, contributing to the overall compliance and performance of the site.
Your success in the role will be measured through key performance indicators such as work order completion, SHE and Rokill completion rates, and the consistent delivery of daily and weekly tasks.
