Solid hands-on experience as a field service, maintenance, or electromechanical engineer
Comfortable working with 3-phase systems, PLCs, hydraulics and motors
Level 3 Electrical qualification (ideally with 16th, 17th or 18th Edition)
A proactive, self-sufficient approach to engineering tasks
Full UK driving licence (essential)
Experience with recycling machinery (desirable, but not essential)
