A Unique Opportunity
Join one of the UK's most exciting new Energy Recovery Facilities (ERF) at Ellesmere Port. We're looking for 3 experienced Control & Instrumentation Technicians ready to be part of something from the ground up - supporting pre-commissioning, hot commissioning, and helping shape operational standards from day one.
This role is ideal for Technicians who want more than maintenance - initially, you'll be writing procedures, feeding back into operational decisions, and growing as the site grows. The early phase will be hands-on but measured, with the pace picking up significantly as we move to commissioning and full operation.
Team building activities will be held often to support strong collaboration from the start.
Key Responsibilities
Hands-on electrical/control system maintenance and fault-finding
Support with OEM manual reviews and maintenance documentation
Assist in developing safe systems of work and CMMS maintenance strategies
Collaborate on site-wide KPIs and plant performance
Participate in outage planning, execution, and Root Cause Analyses
Support plant improvements and contractor supervision
Maintain excellent housekeeping and promote safety culture
What We're Looking For
Controls and instrumentation bias
Electrical/Instrumentation apprenticeship (or equivalent experience)
Background in ERF, power generation, or heavy process industry
Experience with switchgear, control gear, motors, VSDs, DCS/SCADA
Comfortable with P&IDs, schematics, technical documentation
Strong communicator with sound H&S knowledge
Ready to Build from the Ground Up?
This is more than a job - it's a chance to be part of the DNA of a brand-new ERF site. You won't just operate a plant; you'll help shape it. If you're excited by pre-commissioning, enjoy influencing standards, and want to be part of a collaborative, high-performing team from the beginning - we want to hear from you.
