My client has enjoyed continued growth and expansion which meant a further relocation of the business was required within eight years of start up. This second move, to a newly built facility in Europe, provided the organisation with excellent possibilities for future growth. Today my client employs in excess of 1000 people, and has activities in more than 30 countries around the world.
They are looking for an experienced Field Service Engineer who has worked with hydraulics, and in particular maintenance and servicing of fork lift trucks.
The ideal candidate would have at least 2 years working experience in the field, a full clean UK driving licence, a good communicator, and be able to work to dead lines.
In return my client will offer a competitive salary + bonus + company vehicle + expenses + pension and private health insurance.
If you live in or around the Exeter area and you would like a fresh challenge, then send me your CV now.
