We’re supporting a market leader in intelligent parking solutions as they expand their Field Service Engineer team across the UK! This role is ideal for a hands-on, self-motivated, multi-skilled engineer with experience working on electromechanical, low-voltage, or security/automation systems. The company designs and manufactures their own parking technology in the UK, including:

• Ticket kiosks and payment terminals
• Barrier and access control systems
• ANPR/CCTV camera technology
• Embedded PCs, printers, touchscreens, and industrial switches

Full product training is provided, making this a strong step for engineers from CCTV, alarms, ticketing, vending, or car park equipment backgrounds who want to develop in a specialist, future-focused industry.

As a Field Service Engineer, you will:

• Carry out repairs, servicing, and preventative maintenance on parking and access control systems
• Work on a range of hardware including cameras, kiosks, barriers, PCs, printers, touchscreens, and Moxa switches
• Diagnose electrical, mechanical, and software-related faults
• Install, terminate, and test cabling
• Work safely around power supplies and low-voltage systems
• Support installation and upgrade projects when required
• Manage your own workload independently across Essex
• Deliver a professional, customer-focused service at all times

You must have experience in a field-based service or maintenance role involving hands-on work with electromechanical or low-voltage systems, ideally including:

• CCTV or ANPR systems
• Alarm or security systems
• Ticketing or vending machines
• Car park equipment (barriers, pay stations, access control)
• Intercom or access systems
• PC-based or software-driven hardware
• Cabling, terminating, and basic electrical work

Note:

Pure IT/networking or ATM-only backgrounds are not the right fit for this role.

• Confident working with hardware, cabling, and low-voltage electrical systems
• Ability to diagnose faults across electrical, mechanical, and software components
• Comfortable working around power supplies
• Able to read wiring diagrams and technical documentation
• Strong customer service and communication skills
• Self-motivated and comfortable working independently
• Full UK driving licence

• ECS card, 18th Edition, PAT testing, or similar electrical qualification
• Networking fundamentals (CompTIA, Cisco, HND etc.)
• Experience with industrial switches (e.g., Moxa)
