Junior Bio Medical Engineer Birmingham, England
Job description
ABOUT US
Avensys are one of the UKs leading Bio-Medical Engineering companies, supplying and maintaining medical equipment as well as providing training to the nations (and in some cases beyond!) Bio-Medical Engineers. Never before has the field of Bio-Medical Engineering been the focus of such attention; the pandemic has seen a huge rise in demand for the skills that ensure Bio-Medical devices are properly maintained, and Avensys is one of the key players in this new landscape. As well as providing engineers to the NHS Nightingale Hospitals, we have been providing training at these hospitals regarding the correct operation of ventilation and monitoring equipment.
THE ROLE
In joining Avensys as a Junior Bio-Medical Engineer, you will be joining a team of the Nations best EBME engineers. We are known in the industry for the high standard of service we offer, and this is in no small part thanks to capability and diligence of our engineers.
The particular role will involve travel to the surrounding areas, and will require you to provide scheduled maintenance, rectification and modification of medical equipment for Avensys contracts in this area. You will be liaising with our account managers regarding the allocation of jobs, but you will be responsible for various elements of your own administration including recording service notes and parts orders on our Asset Management System, controlling your test equipment and inventories and complying with and carrying out personal risk assessments.
As part of our team of engineers you will be supporting (and receive support from) both your colleagues and your Senior Engineering Manager (SEM). You will receive training via our training academy to ensure that you develop your technical knowledge as regards equipment modalities as well as manufacturers. Different levels of experience will be considered for the role and we are happy to discuss this further.
ABOUT YOU
We pride ourselves on the quality of our engineers, and as such you will be an experienced medical engineer with experience maintaining and servicing Bio-Medical equipment. Our engineers take responsibility for the sites on which they operate so you must be able to work with clinical staff to establish a good working rapport in which Avensys is well represented. This site ownership extends to managing 3rd party/ specialist engineers that must be brought to site – we have invited them and so are responsible for them. You will need an understanding of MS office tools, such as excel and word, and you will be using our bespoke Asset Management System to keep records and upload documents so a level of general IT experience would be of use. You will need to be diligent in your admin - our Asset Management System is used as an interface between you and the account managers and it is essential that the information is entered correctly in order for parts to be ordered, reports to be run and invoicing to be undertaken correctly.
THE TERMS
- Contract Term: Permanent.
- Hours of Work: 37.5 per week, Monday to Friday.
- Annual Leave: 23 days holiday + bank holidays (rising with service to a maximum of 27 days).
- Benefits: Pension scheme, Company Van + Fuel Card, mobile phone enhanced family friendly benefits, private medical insurance after 1 year of service, sick pay scheme.
If you think you could be the right person for Avensys, we would love to hear from you!
