Mechanical Service Technician Needed

Fuel Installations & Specialist Engineering Projects

Looking for a role where you’re properly supported, invested in, and trusted to do the job?

I’m currently recruiting for a specialist engineering company within the fuelling industry who are seeking experienced Mechanical Technicians, Fitters, and Engineers to join them.

We are looking to hear from Engineers who can offer experience from the fuelling sector to be able to hit the ground running.

This is an excellent opportunity for engineers who are looking for career progression, as they are able to offer a direct progression route in a site supervisor position.

The company has built a strong reputation within the industry through high-quality engineering delivery, long-term customer relationships, and significant investment in its people.

• Overtime opportunities
• Company van
• Travel allowances
• Ongoing training and development
• Supportive and engineer-focused management team

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

Work-Life Balance is Genuinely Prioritised

Unlike many engineering businesses operating in this sector, this company actively works to manage engineers’ schedules responsibly.

As a family-run business, they understand the importance of work-life balance and aim to minimise unnecessary time away while maintaining realistic workloads and proper planning.

Varied Work in Interesting Environments

The role offers exposure to a diverse portfolio of customers and projects across commercial, industrial, and specialist fuel installations throughout the UK.

Engineers work across a wide range of technically interesting environments, meaning the work remains varied, engaging, and far from repetitive.

Heavy Investment in Training & Development

The company makes a significant financial investment in engineers who join the business.

This includes ongoing technical training, additional certifications, further upskilling opportunities, and long-term career development for individuals looking to continue progressing within specialist engineering environments.

Stable Business with Long-Term Growth

My client is financially stable, continuing to grow, and expanding its engineering capability due to increasing demand from its customer base.

This is a long-term opportunity within a secure and well-established engineering business.

The Role

The successful candidate will carry out:

• Mechanical service and maintenance works on fuel installations
• Installation and replacement of pumps, valves, pipework, and associated equipment
• Inspection, fault-finding, and repair work within hazardous areas
• Planned preventative maintenance and reactive engineering support
• Engineering works across a range of industrial and infrastructure sites throughout the UK

What They’re Looking For

• Ideally current CompEx certification
• Mechanical engineering / fitting experience
• Experience working within hazardous or industrial environments
• Strong practical fault-finding and engineering skills
• Full UK driving licence
• Professional attitude with strong safety awareness

Candidates from fuel, petrochemical, process, refinery, industrial maintenance, utilities, or similar engineering backgrounds are encouraged to apply.
