We are looking for a skilled Field Service Engineer to join their growing team, providing installation, servicing, maintenance, and repair of irrigation systems at customer sites across the UK.

The role involves diagnosing faults, carrying out repairs, testing equipment, and ensuring systems operate efficiently while delivering excellent customer service.
Key Responsibilities

- Diagnose faults on pumps, motors, valves, hydraulic systems, diesel engines, sensors, and electrical control systems
- Carry out planned preventative maintenance and emergency breakdown repairs
- Read and interpret engineering drawings, wiring diagrams, and technical manuals
- Liaise professionally with customers, suppliers, and internal teams
- Identify opportunities to improve equipment reliability and performance
- Complete service reports and maintain accurate records
- Ensure all work is completed safely and in line with company standards
