The Role
As a

One week you may be diagnosing a PLC-controlled production issue, the next commissioning instrumentation on a new project, upgrading an existing control system or supporting a customer with an industrial breakdown.
If you enjoy
fault-finding, variety and solving problems
, you'll enjoy this role.
About You
You're an experienced electrical tradesperson who enjoys the technical side of industrial electrical work.

You don't need to know every automation platform or technology on day one.
What's in It for You?

You'll receive:
Market-competitive salary package
Fully maintained company vehicle
