Job Description
Field Service Engineer - Electrical Bias
Location: Mobile role - UK-wide travel | Pay: c£20.00 per hour (DOE) + overtime
Company van + travel + tools + expenses
Looking for a hands‑on engineering role that takes you beyond the workshop and into real‑world, on‑site technical work?
This is an exciting opportunity to join a growing team working on complex industrial kit across the UK — including conveyors, shredders, compactors and other heavy machinery.
You’ll be installing, servicing, fault‑finding and repairing a wide range of electromechanical equipment. Every site is different, and you’ll be working alongside a respected team that values independence, professionalism and problem‑solving skills.
This is not just another maintenance job — it's a career path into a niche sector, where your experience will make a visible impact.
Pay & Perks:
* c£20 per hour (flexible depending on background)
* Time and a half paid after 39 hours (Mon‑Sat), double time on Sundays
* 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)

You don't need to have recycling sector experience – if you've worked with heavy machinery or industrial equipment, we'd love to hear from you.
