  • Company van, phone/tablet, credit card, fuel card provided

  • Tools, PPE, uniform and hotel stays covered

  • Full-time hours (42.5/week) + overtime available

  • Progression, development and industry-specific training

What you'll be doing:

  • Carry out installation, maintenance and breakdown response on recycling & handling equipment

  • Diagnose and repair electrical, mechanical and hydraulic systems

  • Complete service reports and worksheets on mobile devices

  • Deliver occasional operator training and support

  • Travel nationally (some overnight stays - accommodation provided)

  • Participate in an on-call rota (1 in 5)

What you'll need:

  • Solid hands-on experience as a field service, maintenance, or electromechanical engineer

  • Comfortable working with 3-phase systems, PLCs, hydraulics and motors

  • Level 3 Electrical qualification (ideally with 16th, 17th or 18th Edition)

  • A proactive, self-sufficient approach to engineering tasks

  • Full UK driving licence (essential)

  • Experience with recycling machinery (desirable, but not essential)
