Control Systems Engineer

If you like variety and different things in your PLC Control Systems Engineering career, then this could be a good move for you.

My client designs and builds clever and unique PLC HMI and Robotic systems, and every year brings a different set of applications, customers, machinery to design and problems to solve. And getting involved in each project gives you that variety, different work, different systems, different UK sites.

You re an experienced PLC programmer (any PLC would be OK, but the usual Siemens, Allen Bradley, Omron, Schneider, Mitsubishi PLC software would be ideal). You ll design the PLC software for each project from scratch, AND THEN follow the project right through to commissioning the machinery and automated systems on the customers site (UK only) and finishing with a working machine performing on site.

Seeing what began on paper actually working is a great feeling!

You re probably based in Leicestershire, Northamptonshire, but some engineers travel in from Hinckley, Coventry, and down the M1 from Nottingham.

Salary: Yes, you ll get a good salary, and yes you ll get holiday, pension and benefits, but also something money can't buy: the chance to really engineer something interesting. If you need that in 2026, talk to me.
