IEIS is a specialist engineering business based at Stone Business Park in Staffordshire, supporting large-scale industrial and construction projects across the UK. The business is growing, the team is close-knit, and the work is genuinely varied.

THE ROLE 

This isn’t a quiet stores job.

• Ability to safely change plugs, replace cables, and carry out basic electrical fault finding
• Full UK driving licence
