• Confident electrical fault-finding ability
• PLC fault diagnosis knowledge advantageous
• A proactive, solutions-focused mindset

This is a business that invests in its engineers and promotes from within. If you’re looking for more than just another maintenance role — and want a position where you can build a long-term career — apply for a confidential discussion.
