Job description

We are looking for an experienced Field Service & Commissioning Engineer to play a key role in the installation, commissioning, servicing and ongoing technical support of specialist manufacturing equipment at customer sites across the UK and internationally.

This is a hands-on engineering role suited to someone with a strong background in industrial machinery and fluid handling systems, including pumps, valves, pipework, sensors, pressure and flow control, dosing, metering and process control.

You will need to be technically confident, with proven mechanical and electrical fault-finding abilities and the capability to diagnose and resolve complex engineering issues independently. You will also be comfortable working directly with customers, taking ownership of technical challenges and representing Composite Integration in a professional manner.

To be considered, you must have a minimum of three years' practical commercial or industrial engineering experience.

This is an experienced-level position, not suitable for graduates or entry-level candidates. Academic or university project experience alone will not meet the requirements.

The role involves approximately 50% UK and international travel, including regular overnight stays, so flexibility and a willingness to travel are essential
