Telford, Shropshire
To GBP55k + GBP4,800 Car allowance + generous overtime
Our Telford based client has been established for almost 20 years and is recognised as a leading provider of all aspects of hardware and software design through to robot system integration and commissioning on a range of bespoke automation solutions for supply to a diverse range of clients throughout the UK. As a result of continued success and an ongoing programme of strategic growth, they are now seeking to recruit two experienced field‑based Controls Service Engineer professionals to support Siemens PLC controlled automation solutions both remotely and at customer sites throughout the UK.
Reporting to the Service Manager, the role is tasked with a combination of planned preventative and reactive service and repair activities as well as providing out‑of‑hours stand‑by support on a fortnight‑around support rota. The successful Controls Service Engineer candidates will initially provide remote or telephone assistance before escalating repairs to an on‑site visit where required. A full UK driving licence is essential and flexibility to travel as required is required.
With excellent organisational and communication skills at all levels, you will also support the activities of fellow team members when required and ensure compliance with relevant H&S legislation as applicable. You will be able to complete detailed service action summaries to be retained for future visits as required.
With strong problem‑solving skills across multiple engineering disciplines, you will demonstrate exhaustive Siemens PLC fault‑find, modification and debug skills as well as solid hardware fault‑finding and resolution abilities – such as damaged cable repair or faulty device replacement from spares held at sites.
It is envisaged that successful Controls Service Engineer candidates will realistically have at least 3+ years’ experience of Siemens TIA portal, with additional experience in Profinet fault finding proving distinctly advantageous, and with experience of working in highly automated environments also proving beneficial.
