Exciting Career Opportunity as a Field Service Engineer at Linde Material Handling in the IP & CO area

Are you ready to take the next step in your career as a Field Service Engineer? Linde Material Handling, a global leader in forklift trucks and warehouse equipment, is seeking skilled Field Service Engineers to join our team.

About the Role

As a Field Service Engineer, you will embark on a dynamic journey in the world of material handling, where no two days are the same. You’ll immerse yourself in a diverse array of tasks, expertly navigating our extensive lineup of products—from agile pallet trucks to robust counterbalance trucks, and cutting-edge very narrow aisle (VNA) trucks to innovative automated solutions.

Key Responsibilities

  • Diagnose and resolve technical issues, ensuring equipment operates at peak efficiency.
  • Conduct essential preventative maintenance check-ups.
  • Travel to various customer locations to service Linde forklifts and other state-of-the-art material handling equipment.
  • Forge strong relationships and deliver exceptional support.

Qualifications

  • Experience as vehicle technicians or mechanical engineers, particularly forklift technicians, plant fitters, plant technicians, or vehicle technicians.
  • Experience with plant equipment, powered access equipment, agricultural machinery, motor vehicles, or industrial cleaners is highly desirable.
  • NVQ level 3 (or equivalent) qualification is desirable but not essential.
  • Comfortable using IT equipment.
  • Full UK driving license.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
