The role holders will join the team early in the development of our state-of-the-art hydrogen and cryogenic research facilities and will take a leading role in installing and commissioning test equipment and systems. It is expected that the facility’s capability will develop further and the role holders will participate in integrating new capability within the existing building.

The roles require time and task management across the portfolio of projects to deliver campaigns in a timely manner, leading and supporting both electrical and mechanical installation, including calibration, certification and maintenance.

About you

You will be competent in mechanical systems installations, possibly gaining experience via an apprenticeship or in a previous role.

Knowledge of, and the ability to work within, relevant Health & Safety regulations is essential.

Some knowledge of cryogenic and hydrogen systems and their associated safety implications, alongside experience of mechanical and electrical test stands would be useful, but not essential as training will be provided.
