- Conduct hazardous area inspections (ATEX/DSEAR) and maintain Ex equipment to site standards and relevant regulations.
- Read and update P&IDs, E&I drawings, loop diagrams, and produce redlines/as?built documentation after modifications.
- Apply safe systems of work (LOTO, Permit to Work, risk assessments, method statements) and champion site HSE standards.
- Support shutdowns/turnarounds, including planning, execution, testing and hand?back to operations.
- Assist with minor projects/installs (specification, procurement, FAT/SAT, commissioning).
- Collaborate with Operations, Engineering and external contractors; contribute to root cause analysis and continuous improvement activities.
You will have the following qualifications & experience:
- Apprenticeship or NVQ Level 3 (Electrical or Instrumentation)
- Strong industrial/manufacturing background (chemical, petrochemical, pharma, food, or similar).
- Proven hands?on experience in instrumentation maintenance and calibration; control valves and transmitters.
- CompEx Ex01–Ex04
- Reactive and Preventative maintenance experience
- Ability to read P&IDs and Loop checks
