This role requires applicants, who are able to strip, fault find, maintain, and repair mechanical systems, such as hydraulics, pneumatics, gearboxes and conveyors that you would find in a fast-moving production environment.

To do this applicants should have a sound understanding of Hydraulics, Pneumatics, Hydraulics, Chains, Conveyors, and Gearboxes and be able to both dismantle and repair this kind of mechanical equipment. Applicants with a depth of fault-finding and repair experience within rotational equipment who are working in a workshop environment or heavy production based service/repair type role would be of great interest.
