About the Role

Key Responsibilities
- Carry out planned preventative maintenance (PPM) visits on customer equipment.
- Diagnose and repair electrical and mechanical faults.
- Attend customer sites to complete reactive service and breakdown work.
- Ensure all service visits are completed to a high standard and within agreed service levels.
- Complete service reports and associated documentation accurately and on time.
- Maintain company vehicle stock levels and manage spare parts effectively.
- Liaise with customers, suppliers, and internal technical support teams.
- Follow all health, safety, and compliance procedures.
- Ensure company equipment, tools, and vehicles are maintained correctly.
- Support technical improvements and contribute to continuous service excellence.
- Participate in occasional out-of-hours, weekend, and overnight travel when required.
