We are looking for a dedicated and experienced Multi-Skilled Shift Engineer to join the team at our site in East London. This is a fantastic opportunity for engineers with a background in mechanical and electrical maintenance, with the potential to work on light electronic systems too. If you are a proactive problem-solver with a passion for engineering and a desire to work in a fast-paced, dynamic environment, we want to hear from you!

  • Strong skills in both mechanical and electrical engineering – with a good understanding of systems, diagnostics, and repairs
  • Ability to work under pressure and manage time effectively
  • Experience with light electronic systems is desirable but not essential
  • Former Forces Engineers are highly encouraged to apply, as we value the skills and discipline brought from military backgrounds
  • A valid driving license and own transport are essential for travel to the site
  • A proactive, solution-focused attitude with an ability to work independently and as part of a team
The Package:
  • A competitive salary of £48,000
