Looking for a hands-on role that allows you the opportunity to regularly travel to customer sites?

This is an excellent opportunity to join a well-established and industry leading client that has seen incredible growth tackling innovative environmental engineering projects across the UK and Europe. You'll be part of a skilled, close-knit team building and maintaining unique mechanical and electrical systems - varied work that includes workshop assembly and customer site installations and fault finding (with some UK/European travel).

What you'll be doing
As an M&E Technician, you'll be responsible for the installation and servicing of mechanical and electrical systems. Expect varied, practical work - from workshop based to fault-finding and customer facing site-based commissioning.

We're looking for mechanically minded people who are also confident with electrical fault-finding, or vice versa - the team values engineers with a proactive approach.

Interpreting schematic drawings to assemble and diagnose issues

Repairing and replacing components in hydraulic and pneumatic systems (solenoids, valves, actuators)

Using fitting techniques to maintain system integrity

Electrical:

Reading and interpreting electrical schematics confidently

Diagnosing and repairing faults with a multimeter

Safely isolating and replacing faulty components

Working with 3-phase equipment, inverters and drives

Familiarity with PLC systems is desirable, but full training can be provided

What you'll need to succeed:

- Proven experience in industrial, processing or similar environments.

- Excellent problem-solving and troubleshooting skills.

- Ability to read and interpret technical drawings and schematics.

- Understanding of hydraulic and pneumatic systems.

- Willingness to travel.

And this is what you'll get in return:

- £40,000 starting salary

- Annual salary review.

-- Discretionary bonuses.

- Ongoing training and development opportunities in an innovative industry

- Pension scheme.

- Life insurance.

- Regular company socials.

- A Monday to Friday days based role

- Overtime at enhanced rates.

You'll be joining a well-established, growing business that offers stability, career progression, and the chance to work on cutting-edge environmental projects.
