Job description
Overview

Field Service Engineer (Diesel Engines) – Birmingham, Derby, Wolverhampton

Basic salary starting at £37,423 per annum + Company Van + Fuel Card + laptop + mobile + Overtime available

Are you an experienced automotive technician who enjoys working with customers to solve engineering problems? Do you have the engineering and commercial know-how to effectively represent a global leading brand?

The Company

You will be joining an organisation synonymous with engineering excellence, developing leading power generation technology solutions for customers in the marine, construction, agricultural, rail and defence sectors (amongst others). A genuine leader in their field, this company provides comprehensive training for the engineers to reflect the developing and emerging technology in its product range. Customer relationships are key, hence the Service Engineer we are looking for will have a clear track record of delivering added value services in client facing roles.

The Ideal Candidate
  • You will be experienced in both the mechanical and electrical maintenance of diesel engines and/or propulsion systems and associated electrical control technology, ECU (Electronic Control Unit).
  • Qualified to NVQ3 as a minimum with demonstrable fault diagnostics and remote diagnostics and conditioning experience.
  • Working in a highly safety critical environment, you will be required to undertake pre-employment checks including medicals, drug and alcohol screens.
  • Applications from ex-forces personnel (e.g., RAF, Royal Navy, British Army) or experienced engineers within Marine, Rail, Automotive, HGV or Bus sectors are welcomed. This position offers a fantastic opportunity to move your career towards the Rail sector.
The Role
  • As the Rail Service Engineer, you'll carry out fault diagnostics on modern diesel engines, download data, and work with ECU familiarity.
  • Fully product training will be provided. Service Engineers are responsible as product experts for ensuring performance and availability for the diesel engines in the rolling stock.
  • While hands-on work is involved, the role centres on remote diagnostic work to obtain, evaluate and interpret data to identify likely faults before physically inspecting the engine.
  • This represents intermediate fault-finding activity and fault resolution via effective condition monitoring.
Salary and Benefits

Basic salary £37,423 per annum + Overtime available + Company Van + Fuel Card, Laptop, Mobile Phone.

This field-based role covers the Midlands region. It is a Monday to Friday DAYS role, 40 hours per week, with 25 days holiday + bank holidays. Attractive pension scheme, private medical and other company benefits are offered as standard.
