What we're looking for:
- Time-served electrical apprenticeship, City and Guilds Part 3, HND, HNC, or BTech Level 3.
- Detailed wiring skills including lead-free soldering, panel wiring to schematics, and ability to read electrical drawings.
- Ability to fault find and implement corrective action.
- 3 or more years of relevant experience.
- Ideally a combination of mechanical, electrical and electronic assembly skills.
- Experience in the semiconductor or plasma technology industry is a plus.
- Strong attention to detail and high build quality standards.
- Comfortable working a rotating shift pattern reliably.
