Chris Sycamore
About the Role
We're working with a well-established property owner and manager to find a Building Maintenance Engineer for a major retail, leisure, and workspace destination in South West London.
This is a vibrant, mixed-use site that serves as a hub for the local community - a place to shop, eat, work, and connect. As part of the on-site team, you'll help ensure the building operates smoothly, providing a high-quality environment for visitors, tenants, and staff alike.
If you're a skilled engineer with a strong customer focus and a proactive approach to maintenance, this is a fantastic opportunity to play a key role in a landmark London property.
You'll be responsible for a mix of planned preventive maintenance (PPM) and reactive repairs, supporting the day-to-day operations of the site. This is a hands-on role where no two days are the same - from keeping essential systems running to addressing everyday maintenance issues.
What you'll be doing
- Delivering PPM and reactive maintenance across the site, maintaining high service standards.
- Supervising specialist contractors and ensuring work is completed safely and effectively.
- Supporting health & safety compliance, including statutory checks, life safety system testing, and water hygiene monitoring.
- Managing meter readings and contributing to energy management initiatives.
- Carrying out minor installations, building fabric repairs, and general upkeep of common areas.
- Identifying ways to improve service delivery and reduce costs, including self-delivery opportunities.
- Keeping maintenance records updated and assisting in future maintenance planning.
- Building positive relationships with tenants, contractors, and colleagues, acting as a key point of contact on site.
You'll need experience in a similar maintenance role, along with a mechanical qualification (C&G or equivalent). Basic electrical or fabric repair experience would be a bonus.
You'll be familiar with building systems like HVAC, have a good understanding of health and safety, COSHH, and water hygiene standards, and be confident working with contractors and tenants. Above all, a proactive, problem-solving approach and strong customer service focus are essential.
If you are interested in this role, please apply to this role today as this role may appoint before the closing date of this advert
