Field Service Engineer (Electro-Mechanical – Mechanical Bias)
Dartford, Kent + International Travel
£35,000 – £38,000 DOE + Overtime (1.5x)
35 hours per week | Monday – Friday
Why This Role Stands Out
If you’re a hands‑on engineer who enjoys variety, travel, and working with high‑quality machinery, this role offers something different from the typical service position. You’ll split your time between our Dartford site and travelling globally to support well‑known brands, installing and maintaining bespoke packaging machinery. With fully paid international travel, no night call‑outs, and structured overtime, this role offers both balance and opportunity.
What You’ll Be Doing
- Installing and commissioning bespoke packaging machinery worldwide
- Carrying out servicing, maintenance, and fault‑finding (mechanical & electrical)
- Supporting customers on‑site with technical issues and troubleshooting
- Conducting machine surveys and preventative maintenance
- Training customer staff on machine operation and best practices
- Building strong relationships with customers as a key technical contact
- Supporting the Dartford site with workshop‑based engineering when not travelling
What We’re Looking For
- Experience in a Field Service or maintenance engineering role
- Strong electro‑mechanical skills, with a mechanical bias
- Confident fault‑finding and problem‑solving ability
- Comfortable working in a customer‑facing environment
- Flexible approach to travel and working hours
- Full UK driving licence
What You’ll Get in Return
- £35,000 – £38,000 basic salary (DOE)
- Overtime paid at 1.5x (including weekends)
- All international travel fully expensed
- Company vehicle (car or van)
- Fuel covered + company debit card & hotel card
- No night call‑outs
- 35‑hour working week
- Full training on specialist machinery
- Opportunity to develop skills working with advanced, bespoke equipment
- Exposure to international projects and global clients
The Reality of the Role
This is a varied and sometimes reactive position. Plans can change, and customer needs can arise at short notice. In return, you’ll gain experience that few engineering roles can offer — working across different countries, industries, and technologies.
