Asset Engineer Job at Wakefield WF Full Time NEW

Location : Trowbridge , Frome , Warminster Milage Cover Junior Asset Verification Technician (Contingent Worker) Rate : £20-30 p/h Role purpose Support delivery of on-site Asset Verification by undertaking structured asset walkdowns, capturing asset data and photographs, and completing data templates to a defined hierarchy and standard.

Want to make an application Make sure your CV is up to date, then read the following job specs carefully before applying.

Key activities & responsibilities
– Asset capture / inventory: Identify and record all accessible on-site assets (process, estates and services) in the agreed format.

– Hierarchy recording: Record assets using the defined in-scope hierarchy layers (Process, Sub-Process, Equipment Unit, Asset, Sub-Asset) and the client’s existing hierarchy approach.

– Condition assessment (visual, non-intrusive): Photograph assets and record a numerical condition grade per client standard.

– Photography: Capture three photos per asset where practicable (boilerplate/nameplate, asset, location) and ensure traceability/metadata in line with instructions.

– Process understanding: Assist with review and/or production of a simple Process Flow Diagram (PFD) / block diagram for the site.

– Data quality: Highlight unclear items, missing labels, access restrictions and discrepancies for Senior review record assumptions/limitations as instructed.

– Safety & access compliance: Work to approved RAMS and site rules do not attempt activities outside RAMS escalate constraints (e.g., confined spaces/at height/live process areas/below ground where outside RAMS).

Deliverables (per site)
– Junior contribution
– Completed asset capture templates (asset list attributes hierarchy level).

– Photo set per asset (3 where possible).

– Inputs to simple PFD / block diagram and site notes.

Experience / skills (typical) Essential
– Practical experience in industrial / utilities / facilities environments (maintenance, inspections, surveying, asset tagging, or similar).

– Able to recognise common asset types across mechanical/electrical/civil/instrumentation and record details accurately.

– Strong attention to detail confident using Excel/templates and taking consistent photos.

Desirable
– Water / wastewater site familiarity.

– Exposure to asset registers / CMMS / asset hierarchy concepts.

Qualifications / other requirements
– Relevant technical qualification or equivalent practical experience.

– UK driving licence and willingness to travel to operational sites.

– Ability to comply with RAMS and site safety rules (non-intrusive verification approach).

Reporting / supervision
– Works under day-to-day direction of the Senior Asset Verification Surveyor / Site Lead escalates uncertainties, access limitations and anomalies.

Senior Asset Verification Surveyor / Site Lead (Contingent Worker) Rate: £30-40 p/h Role purpose Lead on-site Asset Verification delivery for assigned sites, ensuring safe execution, high-quality data capture, correct hierarchy allocation, robust recording of confidence/assumptions, and completion of all required outputs (asset list, condition grades, photos, PFD).

Key activities & responsibilities
– Site delivery leadership: Plan and lead site walkdowns manage daily priorities and ensure coverage of all safely accessible assets within scope.

– Verification versus existing records: Systematically identify discrepancies between recorded data and observed assets (omissions/inaccuracies/unrecorded assets) and document clearly.

– Hierarchy & structure assurance: Own the correct classification and allocation of assets to hierarchy levels (Process ? Sub-Process ? Equipment Unit ? Asset ? Sub-Asset) and ensure consistent application across the site.

– Condition grading governance: Ensure numerical condition grading is applied consistently and supported with photographic evidence.

– Photography standard & traceability: Enforce the “3 photos per asset where practicable” requirement (boilerplate/nameplate, asset, location) and check that photo sets are traceable to asset records.

– PFD ownership: Review existing PFDs and produce/validate a simple PFD / block diagram capturing the site’s key process steps and asset groupings as required.

– Safety leadership & constraints management: Ensure work is safe, proportionate and non-intrusive confirm RAMS compliance explicitly record verification confidence and assumptions where full confirmation is not achievable flag non-verifiable assets.

– Access coordination / escalation: Recognise restricted areas where client-authorised attendance is required (e.g., electrical cabinets, screened chemical areas) and coordinate/raise constraints appropriately.

– QA/QC & mentoring: Check Junior outputs for completeness/consistency coach on asset identification, photography discipline, and hierarchy rules.

(Role expectation-implementation detail, not mandated by the sources.)

Deliverables (per site)
– Senior ownership
– Complete list of identifiable assets attributes hierarchy level in agreed format.

– Simple PFD / block diagram.

– Photographic record (3 per asset where possible) with traceability/metadata.

– Clear recording of verification status/confidence, assumptions, and assets not fully verifiable.

– Inputs to site review meeting and lessons learned.

Experience / skills (typical) Essential
– Strong track record in asset inspections/surveys in operational environments (water/wastewater/utilities strongly preferred).
