- Proven experience servicing industrial robots (ABB, FANUC, and/or KUKA)
- Strong fault-finding skills across electrical, mechanical, and controls systems
- Ability to read and interpret electrical schematics and technical drawings
- Full UK driving licence and willingness to travel nationwide, including occasional overnight stays
- A calm, professional, customer-first approach - especially under pressure
Bonus points for:
- PLC experience (Siemens, Allen-Bradley, or Mitsubishi)
- HNC/HND or apprenticeship in Electrical Engineering, Mechatronics, Robotics, or Automation
- Robot programming and commissioning experience
What's on offer:
- Salary up to £60,000, based on experience
- Company vehicle, laptop, and mobile phone
- Ongoing manufacturer training and genuine career progression
- Pension scheme + overtime opportunities
