What we’re looking for -
HNC/HND in Electronics, Electrical Engineering or equivalent (or strong hands-on technical background gained in Service).
Experience in field service, equipment repair, commissioning, or installation – desirable but not essential.
Confident using test equipment (e.g., multimeters).
Good communication skills – written and verbal – able to engage with customers.
Full UK driving licence.
Comfortable with a physically active role (ladders, confined spaces, etc).
Ex-military backgrounds especially welcome (e.g. REME, Avionics, Comms, Marine Engineering, Weapons Tech, RAF/Electrical, Submariner Technicians, etc).
What’s in it for you -
Base salary - £30-£35k + paid overtime (often taking total earnings higher).
