Are you an Automation & Controls Engineer who thrives on variety and problem-solving? This role offers the chance to work across multiple industries, tackling complex challenges that keep production lines moving and critical systems running.

  • Fault finding across electrical, software, and control systems
  • Supporting customers in industries such as food, utilities, and manufacturing
  • Designing, programming, and commissioning bespoke automation solutions
  • Balancing site work with project delivery and technical office tasks

What We’re Looking For

  • 3+ years’ experience in automation/controls engineering
  • HNC or higher in Electrical/Electronic Engineering (or equivalent)
  • Strong problem-solving mindset and hands-on approach
  • Comfortable working in a mix of field and office environments#


Why Apply?

You’ll join a business that puts engineering first, offering genuine career growth, flexibility, and the chance to see your work come to life in diverse and exciting sectors.
