Job Description

Workshop Engineer – Heavy Plant Equipment
Biggleswade | Permanent | Leading OEM
Are you an experienced mechanical engineer looking to move into heavy plant and earthmoving equipment?
Or perhaps you already work with heavy machinery and want a workshop-based role with a leading international OEM?
This is an excellent opportunity to join a highly skilled engineering team at a busy workshop in Biggleswade, carrying out repairs, diagnostics, servicing and overhauls on a range of heavy plant equipment.
You’ll be working on serious machinery, solving technical problems and carrying out high-quality repairs — without spending your working week travelling from site to site.
The Role
Working as part of an experienced workshop team, you’ll be responsible for diagnosing faults, repairing and maintaining heavy plant machinery to OEM standards.
The workshop supports customers across the business and plays an important role in ensuring machines are repaired, prepared and returned to service safely and efficiently.
Your day-to-day responsibilities will include:
  * Diagnosing mechanical, hydraulic and electrical faults
  * Repairing, servicing and overhauling heavy plant machinery
  * Carrying out Pre-Delivery Inspections (PDIs)
  * Inspecting machinery and identifying additional repair or maintenance requirements
  * Completing repairs to a high standard and in line with manufacturer procedures
  * Supporting other engineers with technical issues when required
  * Working closely with other departments to coordinate repairs and machine availability
  * Maintaining accurate job cards, repair records and maintenance documentation
  * Ensuring all work is completed in accordance with health, safety and quality standards
What We’re Looking For
We’re interested in hearing from experienced engineers with a strong mechanical background.
Ideally, you’ll have experience working with:
Heavy plant | Earthmoving equipment | Construction machinery | Agricultural machinery | HGVs | Large mechanical equipment
You should have:
  * Strong mechanical fault-finding and repair skills
  * Experience servicing and repairing machinery or heavy equipment
  * A good understanding of hydraulics, engines and mechanical systems
  * A methodical approach to diagnostics and problem-solving
  * Good communication skills
  * The ability to work effectively as part of a workshop team
  * A strong focus on safety and quality
A relevant mechanical engineering, plant maintenance, agricultural engineering or similar qualification would be advantageous, although practical experience is equally important.
Why Join?
This is an opportunity to build a long-term career with an established international OEM, working with high-quality machinery and alongside experienced engineers.
You’ll benefit from:
  * Competitive salary based on experience
  * Permanent, workshop-based position in Biggleswade
  * Training and ongoing technical development
  * Opportunities for career progression
  * Comprehensive company benefits package
  * Exposure to a wide range of heavy plant machinery
  * The backing and resources of a global equipment manufacturer
  * A skilled and supportive engineering team
