Vocational and Technical Skills

Desirable: NVQ level qualification in plumbing or electrical would be desirable but not essential. PASMA and IPAF training would be desirable, but training can be given. Experience

The job holder will be required to have experience within building, maintenance, and construction working practices and procedures, especially matters concerning Health & Safety. Interpersonal Skills

When dealing with client personnel and at all levels, the job holder must use tact and diplomacy in order to get cooperation from client personnel and when dealing with visitors. Responsibility

Human Resource Management

The job holder is responsible for checking on the quality of their work and supervising less experienced staff when required. Physical Resource Management

The job holder is responsible for the care of tools, plant, and machinery while in their use, whether the property belongs to the client or Pareto. Confidentiality is required on all matters that are pertaining to Pareto and the client. The quality of the post holder’s work can have an indirect effect on animal care, e.g., quality of work within animal enclosures. Communication

Communication is oral/written and mostly internal with the site manager and client’s staff. Communication is generally straightforward. From time to time, the job holder will liaise with contractors working inside of the client’s sites or areas of responsibility, and at times with visitors. Liaison

The client’s image can be affected by the job holder’s dealings with visitors and the media. While in dealings with the client’s personnel at all levels, the client’s costs and operational efficiency are influenced. The post holder also has a requirement to liaise with inspectors and governing bodies that may come to the client’s sites or areas of responsibility. Mental Demands

Judgement and Decision Making

Work is allocated to the job holder who, in most cases, decides how to tackle it, sometimes with the help of specifications and drawings. There is consultation within the team regarding the work plan. From time to time, the job holder is requested to change work priorities. Routine decisions are made daily, based either on personal experience, own initiative, or following discussions with the client’s appointed contact. Original Thought and Problem Solving

Many tasks involve original thought. Common problems arising are usually technical in nature and are solved independently using past experience and knowledge, and sometimes there is a need for design. On occasion, help will be sought from the Site Manager or Client's appointed contact regarding unusual problems. Concentration

There is a need to be alert at all times, but a particularly high level of concentration is required when working on machinery, and specific detail needs to be paid to Health & Safety guidelines. The client’s unique environment requires extra concentration and due diligence to Health and Safety and locking procedures, especially with regard to working in or around any animal enclosure. On occasion during an emergency, a lone working environment may exist, and due diligence to lone working procedures must always be adhered to. Flexibility

Tasks cover a wide range of activities. The number of interruptions daily is very variable. These are always from internal sources, usually the Supervisor or other Pareto staff. Depending on priorities, the job holder will either respond immediately or deal with the matter at a later date. The post holder may be asked to carry out tasks outside of their general duties. Working Conditions

The job holder is required to work in a variety of conditions; these may be outside, in the presence of adverse weather conditions, personal risk (especially with machines), noise (e.g., machinery), and pollution (e.g., dust).
