Field Service Engineer (Electromechanical Systems)

Midlands / South UK Field-Based Role

-16 - -20 per hour + Door-to-Door Pay + Overtime at 1.5x / 2x / Double Time

Van, Tools, Expenses & UK/European Travel Included

A hands-on engineering role where no two days are the same

We are recruiting for a Field Service Engineer to work on advanced automated entry systems used in high-profile commercial and secure environments across the UK.

This is a role for a genuinely capable, self-sufficient engineer who enjoys getting out on the road, solving problems independently, and taking ownership of technical work from fault to fix.

You''ll be trusted to get on with the job without micromanagement, backed by strong support, proper tools, and a business that rewards effort with serious earning potential.

What you''ll be doing

  • Installing, servicing and repairing automated entry systems including speed lanes, barriers and pedestrian portals
  • Diagnosing and fixing complex electromechanical faults in real time on customer sites
  • Carrying out full testing, commissioning and final sign-off of equipment
  • Handling both planned maintenance and reactive breakdown work
  • Working independently across a UK-wide patch, with occasional European travel
  • Providing technical support remotely when not out on site
  • Ensuring all work is completed safely, accurately and to a high standard

What makes this role stand out

  • High earning potential with structured overtime (1.5x / 2x)
  • Door-to-door pay - every hour you work counts
  • Fully equipped van (business use), tools and expenses covered
  • Genuine autonomy - manage your own day, no constant supervision
  • Work on specialist systems used in premium commercial environments
  • Opportunities for occasional international work, including Europe
  • Strong pipeline of pre-planned projects alongside reactive work

What we need from you

  • Strong electromechanical engineering background
  • Confident fault-finding and repair capability on complex equipment
  • Ability to work independently in the field without hand-holding
  • Practical, hands-on approach with a logical mindset
  • Comfortable with travel, overnight stays and occasional unsociable hours
  • Professional attitude in customer-facing environments
  • Experience with barriers, portals or automated systems is beneficial but not essential

Location & requirements

  • Midlands or South UK based (no Northern coverage)
  • CSCS or ECS card required (support available if expired or not held)
  • Enhanced DBS check required
  • Initial office onboarding before field deployment
  • 4-month probation period

If you''re an engineer who prefers being out in the field solving real problems rather than being stuck in a workshop or micromanaged environment, this is a role that rewards skill, independence and reliability.

Please apply with an up-to-date CV or alternatively call Alex on (phone number removed).
