The Opportunity

Looking for a maintenance role without night shifts, continental shifts or factory production pressures?

With daytime shifts, excellent work-life balance and the backing of Merlin Entertainments, this is an opportunity to build a long-term career while maintaining critical systems that support thousands of marine animals every day.

No two days are the same. One day you could be fault finding a large pump system, the next helping maintain the life support infrastructure that keeps Europe's largest living coral reef exhibit operational.

You do not need previous aquarium experience. We’re interested in engineers from manufacturing, industrial, facilities, building services, utilities, water or other hands on maintenance environments.

The Candidate

We’re looking for a practical, hands on Facilities Maintenance Engineer who enjoys fault finding, fixing equipment and solving problems.

You could currently be working as a Facilities Engineer, Maintenance Engineer, M&E Engineer, Building Services Engineer, Multi Skilled Engineer, Pump Engineer or Engineering Technician.

Essential

Minimum Level 3 NVQ/City & Guilds in an engineering capacity
Strong mechanical maintenance experience
Electrical fault finding ability
Planned and reactive maintenance experience

A strong approach to safety and reliability

Wide range of employee benefits and discounts

Why Join?

This role offers the opportunity to develop specialist knowledge of aquatic life support systems while broadening your experience across electrical, mechanical and control systems within a highly unique environment.

Same engineering skills. Completely different environment.

Apply now to take your maintenance experience into one of London's most unique engineering environments, keeping the critical systems behind SEA LIFE London Aquarium running safely and reliably.
