• Supporting testing, commissioning and fault-finding activities where required.

• Contributing to a strong culture of quality, health, safety and continuous improvement.

The majority of your work will be based at our Great Yarmouth facility, although there will be opportunities to support site activities, commissioning, testing and customer projects both in the UK and overseas.

Qualifications / Skills & Experience

You’ll have an engineering qualification, ideally at BEng level or equivalent (please still apply if you have a HNC/HND or equivalent), alongside an understanding of industrial mechanical and hydraulic control systems.

We’re particularly interested in candidates who can demonstrate:

• Experience using ERP systems.

• Knowledge of materials and their properties.

• Understanding of hazardous area equipment selection, installation and maintenance.

• Experience of on-site/offshore commissioning or fault-finding.

You’ll also need to be comfortable working both independently and as part of a wider team, with strong organisational skills and the ability to prioritise workload and deliver within time and cost constraints.

Please note that due to the nature of the role, a valid UK driving license and passport are required, together with the ability to maintain an offshore survival certificate where applicable.
