Field Service Technician | Walsall, West Midlands (UK & Ireland travel) | £32,000–£36,000
Join Parsons, a specialist designer, manufacturer, installer, and maintainer of fume & odour scrubbing equipment, working across a wide range of industries to deliver air pollution control solutions that genuinely matter to our customers' operations.
We're looking for a Field Service Technician to keep our customers' gas scrubbing equipment running safely, reliably, and to the high standards Parsons is known for. This is very much an out-in-the-field role — you'll be the professional face of Parsons on customer sites across the UK and Ireland, planning and delivering preventative maintenance, and being the first response when something needs urgent attention. You'll also get involved in supporting new installations and, from time to time, working alongside our production team back at the factory.
What you'll be doing
- 🗓️ Planning and coordinating the service schedule, liaising directly with customer sites, and arranging materials ahead of each visit
- 🔧 Carrying out planned preventative maintenance to Parsons standards, completing accurate documentation, and recommending repairs or upgrades
- 🚨 Responding to emergency breakdowns, diagnosing faults on the spot, and aiming for a first-time fix, escalating for permanent corrective action where needed
- 📈 Spotting recurring fault patterns and feeding improvement opportunities back into the business
- 🏗️ Supporting the installation and commissioning of new equipment, and lending a hand with manufacture and fabrication when required
