Job Description

Controls Engineer

Location: Bungay, Suffolk
Salary: £45,000 - £65,000
Working Pattern: Full-time, on-site

If you're spending more time maintaining old equipment than solving new engineering problems, this could be worth a look.

We're supporting a specialist automation business that designs and builds bespoke machinery for a broad range of manufacturing environments. Every project is different. The work is hands-on, varied and focused on getting complex automated systems running reliably in the real world.

You'll join a commissioning and controls team responsible for taking machines from build completion through testing, commissioning and customer sign-off.

What you'll be doing

  * Programming and modifying PLC and HMI systems

  * Commissioning automated machinery and production equipment

  * Fault finding across electrical, mechanical, pneumatic and controls systems

  * Configuring servo drives, VFDs and motion control systems

  * Supporting machine testing and performance improvements

  * Working closely with design, build and project teams to solve technical issues

  * Documenting modifications and commissioning activities

  * Occasional travel to customer sites within the UK and overseas

What they're looking for

  * Experience within automation, special purpose machinery or machine building

  * PLC programming experience using platforms such as Siemens, Allen Bradley, Mitsubishi or similar

  * Strong commissioning and fault-finding capability

  * Understanding of HMIs, drives, motors and industrial networks

  * Ability to read electrical schematics and technical drawings

  * Practical approach to problem solving

  * Comfortable working both independently and as part of a project team

Nice to have

  * Robotics experience

  * Motion control expertise

  * Exposure to bespoke automated machinery

What's on offer

  * £45,000 - £65,000 depending on experience

  * Varied project work rather than repeat production support

  * Opportunity to work with advanced automation technology

  * Stable and growing engineering environment

  * Clear involvement across the full project lifecycle

This role is likely to suit a Controls Engineer, Automation Engineer, Commissioning Engineer, PLC Programmer or Controls & Commissioning Engineer who enjoys solving technical problems and seeing projects through from build to customer sign-off
