As a Technical Engineering Manager in our Health team, you’ll lead and shape the engineering function that keeps essential hospital services running safely, reliably, and to the highest technical standards. Your work will have a direct and positive impact on patient care, clinical teams, and the wider community.
You’ll be a core member of the Senior Management Team, providing technical leadership, guidance and advise that ensures safe systems of work, full statutory and mandatory compliance, and a culture of professionalism and continuous improvement across engineering services.

- Act as Authorised Person (AP) for Medical Gas Pipeline Systems (HTM 02–01) and Low Voltage Electrical Systems (LV), ensuring safe systems of work, technical permit control, and competence of appointed personnel.
- Ensure robust auditing processes and governance are in place to maintain compliance and deliver continuous assurance of engineering safety systems.
- Lead engineering risk assessments, critical system reviews, and infrastructure resilience planning, escalating risks appropriately through Technical Safety Groups.
- Provide technical and managerial support for capital schemes, from design evaluation to on‑site supervision.
- Develop and mentor engineering mangers, supervisors, APs, and technical leads, building capability, succession planning, and a culture of high technical standards.
- Deputise for the Contract Manager when required, representing the Estates function and collaborating with the NHS Trust, SPV, and clinical colleagues.
