Southampton - International Travel Required
Are you a Field Service Engineer with turbocharger experience, looking to join a global engineering company where you'll work on high-value turbocharger systems across ships and power plants worldwide, with door-to-door pay, regular overtime and clear progression opportunities?
This privately owned global marine engineering company specialises in the service, repair and overhaul of exhaust gas turbochargers for the shipping and power generation industries. Established in the 1980s, the business has grown into an international specialist with a strong reputation for technical expertise and responsive customer service, supporting clients and projects across the world.
In this field-based role, you will spend around 70% of your time travelling to customer sites, vessels and power plants, with the remaining time based in the company's workshop near Southampton. You'll carry out reactive maintenance, inspection, repair and overhaul of marine turbochargers, often working on large-scale jobs where minimising customer downtime is critical. The role involves extensive international travel and regular periods away from home, with door-to-door pay and significant overtime available.
