London & South East
£38,000 to £42,000 + Van + Healthcare
A well established environmental monitoring and gas detection manufacturer is seeking a Field Service Engineer to cover London and the South East.
The business designs, manufactures and supports fixed continuous gas detection and environmental monitoring systems used across sewage treatment works, defence estates, facilities management, semiconductor plants and university clean rooms.
Originally family founded in the 1980s, the company is now part of a major international technology group with global backing, while still operating with the culture and visibility of a close knit engineering team.
The Role
You will manage your own diary and work across a varied client base, primarily within the M25 and surrounding counties.
Duties include:
* Service, calibration, fault finding and commissioning of fixed gas detection systems
* Preparation for works including reviewing scope and ensuring correct parts and test gases
* Completing job sheets, time sheets and stock records
* Maintaining mobile van stock and equipment
* Occasional installation and commissioning support
This is a role for someone who enjoys autonomy, takes pride in their work and wants to be trusted to deliver.
About You
You may already have experience in fixed gas detection.
However, strong transferable experience from electrical or electronic field service is very welcome.
You will ideally have:
* Experience as a Field Service Engineer working independently
* Electrical or electronic fault finding skills
* Confidence managing paperwork and digital reporting
* A clean UK driving licence
* Good time management and self motivation
CSCS is required, though support will be given to obtain this if needed. Additional training such as Asbestos Awareness, Working at Height or IPAF can be provided.
Full product training will be delivered in house.
What's On Offer
* £38,000 to £42,000 basic salary
* Company van for business use
* 20 days holiday plus Bank Holidays, rising to 25 days
* Workplace pension
* Private healthcare
* Death in service
* Monday to Friday, 8.30am to 4.30pm
This role suits someone who enjoys working independently but wants to be part of a business where their contribution is visible and valued.
Confidential discussions welcome.
