Chelmsford, Essex, United Kingdom Zurich Insurance Company Ltd. Full time

Location: Essex

Salary: Competitive salary, up to £54,394 depending on experience.

Car: Essential Car User

So what's it all about:

At Zurich, our Engineer Surveyor workforce is central to our continued success, being the 'Face of Zurich' to our large and varied client base. You'll find a fully flexible offering that means you can manage your own diary to service your own client area. This will allow you to broker and develop your relationships whilst representing Zurich Engineering.

No two days will ever be the same, as you'll work in a variety of interesting environments and you will have control over your own work/life balance, as we believe our people are what makes us successful.

Our Engineer Surveyor roles allow you to develop your mechanical engineering skills further and work for a market-leading engineering inspection provider.

Zurich Engineering is looking to expand our highly skilled, field-based, Engineer Surveyor team, and we currently have a vacancy for the Essex area for a Lift and Crane Engineer Surveyor.


What will I be doing?

You'll start with our industry-leading, bespoke training and move swiftly to carrying out hands-on statutory inspections, providing your expert opinion on a wide range of equipment, enabling our clients to comply with all relevant legislation and to the exacting standards both we and our clients demand. Following your inspection, we'll need you to report back using a rugged laptop, and then issue electronically to our clients, so good IT skills and high levels of literacy are required. You will be an excellent communicator, and confident in your ability to make sound engineering judgements.

What skills/qualifications will I have?

You will be an experienced engineer with a sound knowledge of your engineering discipline and be part of our multi-disciplined inspection team within your geographic area. You will report to a Team Manager and be based from home, with your client base a reasonable travelling distance from your home.

Because this role is SAFed governed, we need you to ideally have obtained:

  • An NVQ Level 3 or ONC qualification in a relevant engineering field (support to achieve EngTech and ultimately IEng is available whilst working as we want to help you get there)
  • You will have completed, either a time served or Modern Apprenticeship
  • Hands-on experience in a relevant engineering discipline
  • A full valid UK driving licence.
  • Be willing and able to work paid overtime.

Who we are:

At Zurich we aspire to be one of the most responsible and impactful businesses in the world and the best global insurer. Together we're creating a brighter future for our customers, our people and our planet.

With over 55,000 employees in more than 170 countries, you'll feel the support of being part of a strong and stable company who are a long-standing player in the insurance industry.

We've made a promise to each other and every employee; to focus on sustainable impact, to care about each other's wellbeing, to use our diverse expertise to be curious and optimistic and to develop the skills needed for our future.

If you're interested in working in a dynamic and challenging environment for a company that recognises and rewards your creativity, initiatives and contributions - then Zurich could be just the place for you. Be part of something great.

Our Culture

At Zurich, our sense of community is strong and we're particularly passionate about diversity and inclusion, which we've won numerous awards for. We want our people to bring the whole of themselves to work and ensure everybody is made to feel welcome, regardless of their background, beliefs or culture.

We work with our wellbeing partners and industry experts to provide the best advice and access to a wealth of lifestyle support. We're also committed to continuous improvement and we offer access to a comprehensive range of training and development opportunities.
