We welcome applications from candidates with a relevant technical qualification, practical background or demonstrable technical aptitude.

Relevant qualifications may include:

• a BTEC in Electrical or Electronic Engineering;
• an HNC or HND in an engineering discipline;
• an engineering, maintenance, electrical or electromechanical apprenticeship;
• T Levels, A Levels or equivalent qualifications containing relevant technical subjects;

Previous experience in healthcare engineering is not required.

Essential Requirements

To be considered for this opportunity, you must have:

• a full and valid driving licence permitting you to drive in the UK by the programme start date of 2 November 2026. This is essential because the role involves regular independent travel to hospitals and other customer sites;
• the ability and willingness to drive regularly and independently across your assigned regional Service Area;
• flexibility to travel in line with customer, operational and training requirements;
• willingness and ability to attend training at other UK locations and, where required for the programme, overseas;
• the ability to stay away from home occasionally for training or operational requirements;
• the right to work in the UK for the full duration of the fixed-term contract; and
• the ability to understand technical training and safety instructions and communicate clearly and effectively with customers and colleagues in English, both verbally and in writing.

What Field-Based Working Means

This is a mobile, field-based role rather than a fixed-site or office-based position. You will spend a significant proportion of your working time travelling to and working at hospitals and other customer locations.

Journey times will vary depending on regional geography, customer demand, operational priorities, customer locations and your home location. Some journeys may be significant.

You should be comfortable with:

• regular independent driving;
• working at different customer locations;
• organising your working day around customer and training requirements;
• occasional early starts or later finishes;
• changes to planned activities when urgent customer needs arise;
• occasional overnight stays; and
• attending technical training away from your home location.

These requirements will be managed in accordance with the applicable employment terms, working-time requirements and company policies.

Training and Support

Throughout the programme, you will receive:

• a structured development plan;
• formal technical and product training;
• supervised field experience;
• coaching and mentoring from experienced Field Service Engineers;
• regular feedback and development discussions;
• access to technical documentation and diagnostic tools;
• support towards a relevant technical qualification, where applicable; and
• opportunities to develop your technical capability and confidence progressively.

You will not be expected to undertake work independently until you have completed the required training, demonstrated the appropriate level of competence and received the necessary authorisation.

What We Will Provide

You will be provided with the equipment needed to undertake the role, including:

• a company vehicle;
• a laptop and mobile phone;
• an appropriate toolkit;
• uniform and personal protective equipment; and
• access to relevant service documentation and technical systems.

The company vehicle will be provided and managed in accordance with the applicable company vehicle policy.
