- Troubleshooting & Repairs: Diagnose and repair mechanical and electrical faults, including pumps, pipework, and PLCs.
- Instrumentation Calibration: Conduct routine calibration of pH sensors, total suspended solids (TSS) sensors, and other monitoring instruments.
- Project Support: Collaborate with project managers on system design, installation, and maintenance, ensuring project timelines and quality standards are met.
- Assist with Pricing Works: Work with project managers to ascertain the necessary equipment for projects and assist in pricing works accurately.
- Site Visits & Travel: Work away from home regularly, with occasional overseas assignments. Travel throughout the UK will be required, along with visits to our Bristol yard for fabrication tasks as necessary.
- Proven experience in mechanical/process engineering within the remediation or water treatment sector.
- Strong fabrication skills, including welding (electrofusion welding experience is desirable).
- Expertise in hydraulic and pneumatic pump maintenance and troubleshooting.
- Experience with PLC troubleshooting and basic electrical fault finding.
- Basic electrical knowledge, with a preference for candidates who are qualified electricians.
