This field-based role primarily covers schools across Edinburgh, with occasional travel to a small number of sites in Clackmannanshire and the Scottish Borders.

With a portfolio of approximately 23 school sites, no two days are the same. From planned maintenance and fault finding to system upgrades and commissioning, you'll be trusted to deliver high-quality engineering solutions that directly support local communities.

• Monday to Friday working pattern, 37.5 hours per week
• Opportunity to work across a diverse estate of educational facilities
• Career development and training opportunities within a leading infrastructure and facilities management business

The Role

As a Commercial Gas Engineer, you'll take ownership of the maintenance, servicing and repair of commercial heating and gas systems across our schools estate. You'll work independently across multiple sites while being supported by a collaborative and professional facilities team.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Carrying out planned preventative and reactive maintenance activities
• Diagnosing faults and repairing commercial gas and heating systems
• Servicing and inspecting commercial gas appliances
• Performing combustion analysis and flue gas integrity testing

• Supporting installations, upgrades, commissioning and project works
• Conducting inspections, risk assessments and statutory compliance checks
• Ensuring all work is completed safely, efficiently and in accordance with regulations
• Contributing to continuous improvement and reducing waste across the contract

This role will involve travelling between sites and may occasionally require working at height and outdoors in varying weather conditions.

• Proven experience servicing and repairing commercial and industrial boilers and gas appliances

• NVQ Level 2 or 3 in Mechanical Engineering or Plumbing
• Legionella awareness and compliance knowledge
• Experience working in education, healthcare or other large estates environments (desirable)

Why This Role Matters
