The Person
We are looking for someone who is:
Technically strong and confident in PLC programming and commissioning.
Practical and hands-on in their approach.
Comfortable working independently on customer sites.
Confident dealing directly with customers.
Calm under pressure and able to remain focused when problems arise.
A strong problem solver with a "get it working" mentality.
Flexible and willing to travel, including overseas.
Professional and able to represent the company positively in front of customers.
Driving Licence
A full UK driving licence is required.

The standard working week is 40 hours.
The role will involve significant on-site commissioning and travel, including UK-wide and overseas projects. Flexibility around working hours and time away from home will therefore be required depending on project demands.
