This role is ideal for ex-Forces engineers with a strong hands-on background - especially those from REME, the RAF, or the Royal Navy - but is equally open to engineers from other industries with solid experience in electrical and mechanical maintenance.
About the Role:
Installing, servicing, and repairing the companies and third-party digital X-ray systems
Supporting hospital and veterinary clients with professional, customer-focused service

Life Assurance: 4x salary
Holidays: 25 days + 8 bank holidays (33 days total)
Group Income Protection
Sick Pay: 5 days (rising to 10 days after 2 years' service)
No on-call rota, though included in contract for potential future need
Training & Progression:
Full, structured training provided over 2-3 years
The business invests approx. £10,000 per engineer, so they're looking for individuals interested in long-term progression
Ongoing technical development with clear routes into senior or specialist roles
Supportive, collaborative team with regular recognition for great work
Who This Would Suit:
Ideal backgrounds:
Ex-military engineers (REME, RAF, Navy) with electrical, mechanical, or electronic maintenance experience
Engineers from sectors such as medical, vending, ATMs, capital equipment, or industrial machinery
Strong experience working with electromechanical systems (e.g. motors, sensors, hydraulics, pneumatics)
