Field Service Engineer – Heavy Industrial / Electro‑Mechanical in London

Field Service Engineer – Heavy Industrial / Electro‑Mechanical

Location: South London (M3 / M23 Corridors)

Salary: £38,000 – £43,000 + overtime + benefits (£50,000 – £55,000 OTE)

Job type: Permanent, full-time | Field-based

What’s on offer

• £38,000 – £43,000 basic salary (experience dependent)
• Wealth of Overtime and call‑out to increase overall earnings
• Door to door pay
• Company vehicle, tools, PPE and workwear

Field Service Engineer role

You’ll be responsible for installation, service, maintenance and repair of:

• Heavy conveyors and material handling systems
• Large electro‑mechanical gates and associated equipment
• Pumps, shafts, bearings, gearboxes, chains, rams and pulleys

Day-to-day you will:

• Strip down and rebuild mechanical assemblies
• Diagnose and replace failed bearings, shafts, chains, etc.
• Fault‑find on electrical control panels with PLCs (no programming), safety relays, E‑stops, sensors/photocells and motor controllers

What we’re looking for

Background (must be heavy/industrial). Examples that work well:

• Heavy manufacturing / processing (e.g. building products, aggregates, heavy plant)
• Industrial conveyor / materials handling environments
• Agricultural / large off‑highway machinery
• Ex‑Forces engineers used to large electro‑mechanical systems

Skill Requirements

Ideally:

• 50/50 electro‑mechanical, or electrically biased with strong mechanical skills
• Strong mechanical engineers with good exposure to electrics who are keen to upskill

You should be able to:

• Strip and rebuild pumps, shafts and bearings
• Work safely with heavy components and lifting equipment
• Understand how control panels and PLC‑based systems function (inputs/outputs, safety circuits)
• Fault‑find electrically in a logical, step‑by‑step way – breaking a big panel into smaller circuits rather than “pulling wires” at random
• Be confident around electrics and willing to learn more (full training given on our systems)

The person

• Practical, “hands‑dirty” engineer who doesn’t mind graft
• Happy working outdoors, sometimes in poor weather
• Positive attitude, wants to learn, especially on the electrical side

Some of our best engineers started from a strong mechanical background and developed the electrical side with us.

Requirements

• Based within reasonable travel of Wembley / Kingston Upon Thames / Guildford / Bromley etc
• Full UK driving licence (we will check licence status/bans/points)
• British passport holder in the UK
• Happy to do 1 week in 4 on call (inc weekends)
