  • Conducting Planned Preventative Maintenance (PPM) and identifying potential mechanical and electrical issues using our reporting system.
  • Performing Service Follow-Up (SFU) and/or project modernisation work related to crane conversion or refurbishment.
  • Attending emergency breakdowns, identifying faults, and carrying out effective repairs, which will generally be electrical problems, possibly PLC related.

  • Must be a competent industrial electrician and/or mechanically biased and apprentice-trained (NVQ level 3 or above).
