Are you a hands‑on Engineer who enjoys fault‑finding, fixing problems and getting stuck into machinery?
We're working with a specialist engineering business looking to recruit a Workshop Service Engineer to join its growing technical team.
This is an excellent opportunity for a mechanically and electrically skilled Engineer to work on specialist heavy‑duty machinery, carrying out servicing, maintenance, diagnostics and repairs.
You'll play an important role in keeping equipment operating safely and reliably, tackling a varied range of engineering challenges rather than being tied to the same repetitive maintenance tasks every day.

- Work with hydraulic and pneumatic systems as part of maintenance and repair activities.
- Service and repair remote‑control systems.
- Support occasional customer site work when required.
- Complete accurate maintenance records and computer‑based reports.
- Maintain a safe, clean and organised working environment.
- Contribute ideas towards continuous improvement and engineering best practice.
What We're Looking For
- At least 3 years' experience working within mechanical and electrical engineering.
- Strong electrical fault‑finding and diagnostic experience.
- Experience diagnosing and repairing electrical control circuits and PLC systems is essential.
- Good mechanical engineering and practical maintenance skills.
- Hydraulic and pneumatic experience would be advantageous.
- City & Guilds qualification or equivalent.
- A recognised engineering apprenticeship would be beneficial.
- A proactive approach with the ability to work independently and as part of a team.
What's On Offer?

- Monday–Friday working pattern.
- Workshop‑based position with only occasional customer site visits.
- Opportunities for further technical training, including occasional training overseas.
- The chance to work on specialist machinery and develop your engineering skill set.
Interested?
If you're an experienced Mechanical / Electrical Engineer looking for a new challenge where you can put your fault‑finding and engineering skills to good use, we'd love to hear from you.
