Multi-Skilled Engineer (Electrical Bias)

Are you ready to use your engineering skills in one of the UK's most exciting and unique Theme Park environments?

As a Multi-Skilled Maintenance Engineer (Electrical Bias), at Chessington World of Adventures, you'll maintain and troubleshoot a wide range of electrical, mechanical and pneumatic systems, including PLCs, 3-phase motors, drives, sensors, control panels and automated ride technology. Working in a safety-critical environment, you'll help keep our world-class rides and attractions operating safely, reliably and efficiently while developing specialist skills rarely found in traditional engineering roles.

What you'll be doing

• Carrying out planned preventative maintenance (PPM) and safety-critical inspections across rides, attractions and ride vehicles.
• Diagnosing and repairing faults on electrical control systems, sensors, drives, motors, panels and instrumentation.
• Completing both electrical and mechanical fault finding across complex electro-mechanical equipment.
• Maintaining and repairing ride vehicles, pneumatic systems, mechanical assemblies and attraction infrastructure.
• Participating in ride overhauls, refurbishment projects and system upgrades during closed periods.
• Recording maintenance activities accurately through our maintenance management systems.
• Supporting preventative and predictive maintenance initiatives to maximise ride reliability and availability.
• Following all engineering safety standards, quality procedures and compliance requirements, including HSG175.
• Contributing to excellent workshop standards through 5S and continuous improvement practices.
• Assisting with spare parts management and critical component planning.

What we're looking for

• A recognised engineering qualification in Electrical Engineering, Maintenance Engineering or a related discipline.
• Strong electrical fault-finding and diagnostic skills.
• Experience working with electrical control systems, motors, drives, sensors and industrial equipment.
• A proactive approach to problem-solving in a fast-paced environment.
• The ability to work safely within a safety-critical engineering operation.
• Previous experience in manufacturing, FMCG, automated systems, industrial maintenance, theme parks or similar environments would be advantageous.
• Flexibility to support operational requirements, including some weekend, evening or seasonal working when required.

If you're an electrically biased maintenance engineer looking for a role that offers variety, technical challenge and the chance to work on engineering systems unlike any other, we'd love to hear from you.
