About the Role
This is a permanent field engineering role dedicated at a major UK airport, with the remainder of time deployed on vehicle installation projects. The core of the role is cellular fault finding on PBE Axell systems within a live, high-security airside environment. This is a newly confirmed requirement with a start wanted ideally next month, and the client is looking to move quickly on the right profile. We will consider both junior and senior engineers in the wireless communications space.
What's in it for you?
- A genuinely varied role - core airport-based fault finding combined with vehicle installation work, rather than a single repetitive site routine
- Strong earning potential on top of base salary through on-call allowance and weekday/Sunday overtime rates
- Company car provided, covering both site travel and daily commuting
- Long-term security with a permanent subcontract arrangement and an ongoing on-call rota once established
- Site familiarisation visits available before committing, so you can see the environment first-hand
