Tesco’s Maintenance Technician role involves keeping store equipment, building systems and facilities safe, reliable and operational. Requirements typically include practical experience in electrical, mechanical, refrigeration, HVAC, building services or general facilities maintenance, along with relevant technical qualifications where applicable. The candidate should be able to diagnose faults, complete planned and reactive maintenance, follow health and safety procedures, and work effectively with contractors and store colleagues. A full driving licence, flexibility to travel between sites, good communication skills and the ability to work independently may be expected. This six-month fixed-term role suits someone dependable, safety-conscious and organised who can respond promptly to maintenance issues and maintain accurate service records.

Its maintenance teams help keep the estate safe, efficient and welcoming by supporting electrical, mechanical, refrigeration, heating, ventilation and building systems.

The United Kingdom is an island country made up of England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, offering employment opportunities in retail, engineering, logistics, technology, healthcare, construction and hospitality. Its culture is diverse, with historic towns, modern cities, sporting traditions, music, theatres and varied regional food. Lifestyle costs differ considerably: London and the southeast are expensive, while many northern cities, Wales and parts of Scotland are more affordable. Public transport is extensive, although a driving licence may be useful for mobile maintenance work. Overseas applicants need permission to work before starting employment. A Skilled Worker visa may apply only when the role, salary and employer meet current immigration requirements; many temporary technician vacancies may not qualify for sponsorship. Candidates should check Tesco’s eligibility requirements, right-to-work rules, housing costs, tax, healthcare access and relocation expenses before moving.
