• Improve spare parts stock control, recording and availability


• Work closely with engineering and other departments to improve service delivery


• Use previous hands-on engineering experience to provide practical technical support


• Help develop processes and procedures across the service and spares functions

What We're Looking For

• Strong hands-on engineering background


• Time-served Engineer or equivalent practical engineering experience


• Previous experience within Service Engineering, Field Service, Installation or Engineering Management


• Experience supervising, leading or supporting Service Engineers would be highly advantageous


• Strong technical fault-finding and problem-solving ability


• Experience within machinery, industrial equipment or manufacturing environments


• Good organisational and people-management skills


• Experience managing spare parts, engineering stores or stock would be advantageous


• Comfortable dealing with customers and providing technical support

• Someone capable of identifying improvements and helping grow the department

Package

• £40,000 - £60,000 salary, dependent on experience


• Permanent, days-based position


• Monday to Thursday, 8:00am - 5:00pm


• Friday, 8:00am - 4:30pm


• Approximately 90% office based / 10% travel


• Pool vehicle available when required


• 20 days holiday plus statutory holidays, with additional holiday entitlement available


• Excellent opportunity to take ownership of and develop a growing service and spare parts function
