Are you an electrically biased engineer who thrives on solving complex problems in real‑world environments? Do you enjoy international travel and being hands‑on with advanced industrial systems? If so, this could be your next move. We’re looking for a Field Service & Commissioning Engineer to install, commission, and support high‑spec OEM process equipment at customer sites across the UK and worldwide. This is a dynamic, customer‑facing role combining electrical fault finding, system validation, and technical support with factory‑based testing and continuous improvement work.
What you’ll be doing:
- Installing and commissioning specialist process equipment on customer sites
- Performing planned and reactive service, diagnostics, and repairs
- Fault finding on control panels, field wiring, PLC‑controlled systems and integrated machinery
- Supporting FAT and SAT activities
- Calibrating instrumentation and validating system performance
- Providing on‑site technical support and operator training
- Feeding back technical insights to support ongoing design improvements
What we’re looking for:
- Strong electrical background (HNC/HND/Degree or equivalent experience)
- Experience with industrial control systems (Siemens, Allen‑Bradley, etc.)
- Confident fault finding on single/three‑phase systems and control circuits
- Ability to read electrical schematics and P&IDs
- Experience in field‑based, customer‑facing engineering roles
- Comfortable with UK and international travel (10-12 trips per year)
When not travelling, you’ll be expected to work onsite in Southampton, supporting the build, test and validation of these systems. This role offers real variety, global exposure, and the opportunity to work with advanced heating and process technologies in technically challenging environments. If you’re practical, proactive, and ready to take ownership on site, we’d love to hear from you.
