Job Description
The opportunity
This is a hands-on field service role with a well-established employer in the drives and power electronics space, based out of Leeds with travel across Yorkshire and the surrounding region. The focus is on ABB variable speed drives, so existing ABB experience is ideal, but if you've been servicing drives from Siemens, Schneider, Danfoss, or similar and fancy specialising, that's worth a conversation too.
You'll be the go-to technical specialist, installing, commissioning, maintaining, and fault-finding across industrial and commercial sites. It's a role that suits someone who genuinely enjoys solving problems on-site, working directly with customers, and staying sharp on evolving drive technology.
What you'll actually be doing
Day to day, you'll be out on customer sites installing and commissioning VSD inverters, carrying out planned maintenance, and diagnosing faults under pressure when things go wrong. You'll also support customers remotely with programming, parameter setup, and performance optimisation. There's a documentation side too, service reports, job records, parts tracking, but the core of the role is technical, practical, and customer-facing.
What they're looking for
The non-negotiables are a solid grounding in electrical engineering (degree or HNC/HND level), proven experience working with inverters or drives, and the ability to read schematics and methodically fault-find. You'll need a full UK driving licence and a genuine comfort with being out on the road.
Beyond that, they want someone who communicates well with customers, takes ownership of jobs from start to finish, and keeps themselves current with product developments. Relevant industry certifications (18th Edition, CompEx, or similar) would strengthen your application.
What's in it for you
* £40,000 – £50,000 depending on experience
* Company vehicle and tools provided
* Ongoing training and professional development, including access to ABB product updates
* Clear route for career progression within the engineering team
* Supportive team environment reporting into the Service Director
