As a Test & Applications Engineer you will be the bridge between the workshop and the customer.
On one side, you will be pulling machines apart, testing them under different conditions, creating samples, measuring results, and trying to break them before they ever reach a customer.
You won’t just be analysing from behind a desk. You will be hands-on with the machines, involved in build, test, fault finding and sometimes supporting installation on-site.
On the other, you will be explaining what it all means, writing reports, presenting options, and showing customers how their machine can perform in the real world.
No two days will look the same... some will be spent fault finding and analysing data, others will be with customers, talking through specifications, metallurgy, coatings and durability.
There may also be opportunities to support commissioning or troubleshoot machines on customer sites.
You are working for a company where the applications can be used in a huge variety of industries.
These are complex industrial machines used across manufacturing environments, where performance, durability and precision really matter.
You are someone who enjoys problem solving, variety and turning complex engineering theory into practical answers.
You will take real ownership of testing and proving performance, not just following a process but improving it.
This could suit an engineer with a few years of experience who enjoys being hands on and close to the product. Whilst this isn’t aimed at someone straight out of university, a graduate with a couple of years of practical, industry-based experience would absolutely be considered.
You will already understand the theory and now be ready to put that into practice in a role where you are both hands on and customer facing.
What will help you succeed here?
An engineering background with the theory to back it up
Experience across mechanical, electrical or materials processes
You might come from an electro-mechanical background, perhaps with experience in control panels, wiring, testing or commissioning machinery.
Curiosity to take machines apart and test them properly
Strong analytical skills, with the ability to write clear reports
Confidence working directly with customers to present practical solutions
The salary on offer here is between £40,000 and £45,000, depending on the experience you are bringing.
There are so many benefits to working here, too many to list them all. But they include 25.5 days holiday plus bank holidays, pension, health cover, death in service, proper training, recognition schemes, bonus potential and more.
And if you are looking for progression the door is open, whether that means developing into management or excelling as a Test & Applications Engineer at the top of your game.
As a Test & Applications Engineer it’s about exploring, testing and proving what these machines can really do, then turning that knowledge into solutions for customers.
