Junior Field Service Mechanical Engineer
£33,000 basic (Annual Earnings up to £55K) Company Vehicle Overtime Paid Door-to-Door UK Travel with Some Overseas Work
Are you mechanically skilled and looking to take your career to the next level? This is your chance to join one of the UK’s most respected machinery manufacturers — a global leader in advanced print & packaging technology — as they continue to expand their UK service team.
With full training and support, you’ll develop your expertise on some of the industry’s most technically advanced print production systems. You’ll gain hands-on experience, travel across the UK (with occasional overseas projects), and build a long-term career within a world-class engineering organisation.
What You’ll Do
- Assist with the installation, servicing, and maintenance of high-tech print production machinery at customer sites.
- Learn to diagnose and repair mechanical and drive-related faults with guidance from senior engineers.
- Carry out preventative maintenance to ensure customers’ machinery runs smoothly and efficiently.
- Travel across the UK (with occasional overseas assignments), gaining exposure to a wide variety of equipment and environments.
Why This Role Stands Out
- Career Development – Structured training and mentoring to grow into a full Field Service Engineer role.
- Attractive Package – £28k–£32k basic salary with realistic OTE £40k (overtime paid door-to-door).
- Company Vehicle – Fully expensed, with travel time paid.
- Exciting Variety – No fixed territory; every week offers new challenges.
- Generous Benefits – 25 days holiday bank holidays, pension scheme, healthcare cash plan, and life insurance.
- Future Security – Be part of a global, financially strong company that values and invests in its engineers.
What We’re Looking For
- Mechanically trained (apprenticeship, HNC, BTEC, NVQ, or similar).
- Some hands-on mechanical experience — could be from maintenance, service, installation, or college/placement projects.
- Enthusiastic, with a problem-solving mindset and willingness to learn.
- Flexible with UK-wide travel and overnight stays (approx. 100 nights per year).
- Based in England with good motorway access (M1, M6, M40, M4 etc.).
The Opportunity
This is a fantastic opening for a junior mechanical engineer to join a global leader in print & packaging machinery. You’ll receive full training, gain exposure to a wide variety of equipment, and progress into a fully-fledged Field Service Engineer role. If you’re looking for variety, development, and long-term career prospects in a world-class engineering team, we’d love to hear from you.
