Are you ready to take your technical skills to the next level in one of the most dynamic and rapidly expanding sectors? This is your chance to join a high-performing data centre operations team responsible for keeping world-leading digital infrastructure running 24/7.
We’re looking for motivated, hands-on engineers who thrive in fast-paced, mission-critical environments and love solving real technical challenges. If you enjoy working with cutting-edge electrical and mechanical systems — and want a career with genuine growth, training and responsibility — this could be the perfect role for you.

The Role: Electrical Maintenance Shift Engineer (Shift Technician)

You’ll play a key role in the smooth, safe and efficient operation of a state-of-the-art data centre environment. You will ensure the reliability of critical electrical and mechanical infrastructure through proactive maintenance, testing and real-time issue resolution.
What You’ll Be Doing

  • Driving safety, efficiency and high-performance culture across the site
  • Making sure all operations meet industry standards and statutory requirements
  • Planning and delivering maintenance and repair tasks, including managing specialist subcontractors
  • Responding to incidents, troubleshooting issues and providing on-call support where required
  • Keeping detailed records of all work completed, identifying improvements and implementing effective solutions
  • Supporting and guiding more junior engineers, helping to build a strong and capable team
  • Demonstrating advanced technical capability across electrical and mechanical systems
  • Writing and reviewing operating procedures and assisting with critical maintenance/change planning

What You’ll Bring

  • Experience in  mission-critical environments (data centres, hospitals, pharmaceuticals, banking, etc.)
  • Technical training or education in Electrical, Mechanical or HVAC engineering
  • Strong skills in maintaining systems such as:
    • High & Low Voltage distribution, switchgear, UPS, generators
    • Chillers, CRAC/CRAH, cooling towers, pumps, pipework
    • BMS systems for monitoring and control
  • Preferably trained in electrical switching & isolation procedures
  • Good computer literacy (Excel, Word, Outlook)
  • Ability and willingness to work shifts in a 24/7 operation
  • A proactive, customer-focused mindset with great attention to detail
  • Strong communication skills and the ability to stay calm under pressure
  • A hands-on, solution-driven approach


Why This is a Fantastic Opportunity

  • Be part of a rapidly expanding industry where skills are in high demand
  • Hands-on work with cutting-edge critical infrastructure
  • Supportive team culture with opportunities to contribute and make an impact
  • Strong professional development — gain new certifications, upskill and progress
  • A dynamic environment where no two days are the same
  • A role that genuinely challenges you and rewards problem-solving and initiative

If you’re excited by complex engineering systems, enjoy working in a critical environment, and want a career with real future progression — we’d love to hear from you.
