Join a Major Nationwide Project as an Installation & Service Engineer at phs Wastekit. If you're an engineer who wants pride in their work, variety in their days, and the opportunity to grow with a business that's investing in people and projects, we want to hear from you.

The Opportunity:

• As an Installation & Service Engineer, you'll be at the front line of our operation installing, servicing, and commissioning recycling equipment in clean, well-managed customer environments.

• The ability to work independently with minimal supervision.
• A professional, customer-focused attitude.
• Confidence communicating clearly with customers and colleagues.
• A disciplined, organised approach to paperwork and administration.
• Most importantly, we're looking for engineers who take ownership, care about quality, and want to be part of a team delivering something bigger.
