Maintenance jobs: what is live today

2,264 maintenance engineer and technician jobs are live across the UK, most often in London, Birmingham and Bristol. Maintenance engineers keep production plant running: electrical and mechanical fault finding, planned preventative maintenance and breakdowns, often on shifts such as 4-on-4-off or nights. Adverts commonly ask for an electrical apprenticeship or NVQ Level 3, and entry-level technician roles exist.

The employers with the most live jobs here, not counting recruitment agencies, are Amazon, CV Technical and Calibre Search. 859 adverts were placed by agencies. 154 of the jobs (7%) come from a licensed visa sponsor or say sponsorship is offered. A licence is not a promise that a job is sponsored, so ask the employer. Pay is shown on a job card only when the advert states it: we do not estimate it.

Maintenance jobs: questions

What do maintenance engineers earn in the UK?

Do I need an electrical qualification to be a maintenance engineer?

Many adverts ask for an electrical apprenticeship or NVQ Level 3, others for a mechanical one, and entry-level maintenance technician roles exist. Read each advert's requirements.

Are any of these jobs from visa sponsors?

Some are from employers on the Home Office register of licensed sponsors, or say sponsorship is offered. A licence does not mean a job is sponsored. See our visa-sponsor page for maintenance jobs and the current rules.
