Pickerings is a leading supplier of high-quality temporary buildings. We design and supply solutions to a diverse customer base including schools needing extra classrooms, commercial businesses needing additional office space and construction sites needing a complex of offices and welfare facilities.

You’ll undertake regular maintenance and servicing of our generator fleet to maximise their availability for hire. Our generators range from 25 to 100 kVA and are predominantly enclosed in a service pod or welfare unit. You’ll also support the depot’s operational team with maintenance of our buildings and their preparation for delivery which may include installation, repair or adjustment of plumbing, electrical and general fixtures and fittings.

You’ll be a time-served or qualified generator engineer with practical experience of maintaining and servicing generators up to 117 kVA. Ideally you’ll also have practical experience of industrial trades such as joinery, plumbing and electrics.

Our work is physically demanding and takes place outdoors so you should be prepared to be exposed to extremes of weather.
