The role plays a key part in delivering technical services at customer sites and the factory, in the design, production and in-service support of new-build modern and legacy products, and delivering repair services to customer equipment.

  • A basic understanding of how a private company operates, in terms of winning orders, delivering orders and generating revenue.
  • Energetic, curious, methodical and determined; this role requires the ability to solve a range of technical problems, in hands-on and desktop-based technical work packages.
  • The ability to present and communicate technical matters and recommendations to management, in clear and concise English, in both writing and orally.
