Job Description:
Engineering Technician - Lift & Crane
Location: Birmingham
Starting salary: £35,339 plus excellent benefits
Role Description
This is an exciting new opportunity for a home-based, mechanical engineer covering Kent or Birmingham to join Allianz Engineering, a division of one of the largest insurers and financial services companies in the world.
As an Engineering Technician, you will assess a wide range of mechanical plant equipment to ensure it is continually safe to use and operate. This could include lifting equipment, submersible pumps, or fixed motors.
You will anticipate our client's needs and help ensure compliance with relevant legislation. You will work closely with other Engineering Technicians and will be managed by a Senior Operations Team Leader. Inspections will be reported electronically for quick and efficient delivery to clients.
This role involves hands-on, non-intrusive inspections of plant and equipment within your area. It offers variety, visiting multiple locations daily and experiencing areas you might not otherwise access. The role can be physically demanding and may require working at heights, in confined spaces, lifting, and climbing in various conditions. Exposure to noise and dust is expected, so comfort in a hands-on environment is necessary.
