Estates Operations Officer (BMS)

Band 7

Job overview

NUH Trust is recruiting a new Estates Operations Officer (BMS) role as part of a new in-house BMS team led by the Estates Operations Manager (BMS).

This is a really exciting opportunity for an experienced BMS Engineer to make a huge difference - improving the service we offer to patients, reducing the Trust’s energy costs and helping our Estates department become less reactive and more proactive.

The Trust is currently installing a new Schneider EcoStruxure BMS and will be providing training to all staff in due course.

Main duties of the job

As the Estates Operations Officer (BMS) is a new role within a new team, we would envisage the first 3 months in post being spent getting to know the existing systems and processes. There will be a requirement to build up key relationships with estates and IT colleagues.

The role is a ‘hands-on’ role, assisting in fault-finding, repair and upgrading of the Trust’s BMS system. The role will work closely with existing workshop staff and Estates Engineers,

supporting them as required.

 

The team will be responsible for updating BMS system graphics, programs, trend logs and

infrastructure to meet the strategic aims of the wider department. The team will be based

from individual sites but will work across the Trust’s 3 sites at Queens Medical Centre, City Hospital and Ropewalk Hose as required. With the rollout of the Trust’s new CAFM system there will be a requirement to build asset lists for the BMS and maintain these in conjunction with the Trust’s asset manager. As a hospital BMS manages critical life safety systems the role comes with a high level of responsibility, an ability to build good relationships with estates customers (clinical staff and patients) is essential. To understand the role in more detail, please read the attached job description and person specification documents.

Working for our organisation

With over 19,000 staff, we are one of the biggest employers in the city with a central role in supporting the health and wellbeing of our local population. We play a leading role in research, education and innovation.

Come and join our wonderful team at NUH. We are big believers in diversity and welcome new ideas to help develop our team in order to deliver world class healthcare to the vast patient populations we serve. With endless personal development opportunities available, at NUH we will endeavour to turn your job into a career!
