UCL Estates has a 24/7 service through the Direct Labour Operative team to provide around-the-clock cover for maintenance and repairs issues across the whole UCL campus.


The Estates Direct Labour Operative (DLO) team provides a comprehensive on-call service both responding to emergencies but also undertaking works where access is a problem during normal hours.


With the University becoming more commonly used out of normal study and research times, there is an increase in the number of emergencies and equipment breakdowns that the maintenance team are required to attend to.

You will also allocate work for completion by the M&E Response and CHP teams to be completed inside and outside of normal working hours., liaising with the other Maintenance Operations Supervisors to do so.


You will also be responsible for the health and safety of their team, generating Risk Assessment & Method Statement (RAM) for specific works undertaken by the team as well and monitoring the Dynamic Risk Assessment App (DRA) used by the operatives.

This also includes reviewing the RAM's for any contractors under their control.
