Field Service Engineer - Linde Material Handling

Location: DH, SR, NE Postcodes

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. 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.

About the Role

Your role will be both hands-on and problem-solving-oriented, as you diagnose and resolve technical issues, ensuring our equipment operates at peak efficiency. You’ll also be the guardian of preventative maintenance, conducting essential check-ups that keep our fleet running smoothly. Traveling to various customer locations, you’ll bring your expertise to service Linde forklifts and other state-of-the-art material handling equipment, forging strong relationships, and delivering exceptional support. Prepare to be on the move, tackling challenges head-on and becoming an integral part of our customers’ operation.

Tasks and Qualifications

  • Diagnose and resolve technical issues with Linde forklifts and other material handling equipment.
  • Conduct preventative maintenance to ensure optimal equipment performance.
  • Travel to customer locations to provide expert service and support.
  • Build and maintain strong relationships with customers.
  • Work autonomously and collaboratively within a team.

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.
