  • You will be required to record all work activities to a detailed level for the purposes of looking after all aspects of cost, efficiency, quality and maintenance activities.

  • Contributing to the upkeep and improvement of all relevant technical documentation.

  • Raising purchase orders where required, liaising with the Maintenance co-ordinator to ensure that appropriate stock levels are maintained within budgetary constraints.
