Controls Engineer

Job Description:

Role:  Controls Engineer x 2

Location:  Nottingham

Working Arrangement:  Based in the office 50% of the time with 50% travel

Salary:  Competitive

We’re helping a thriving, niche automation and controls business hire 2 new Control Software Engineers to join their growing team. They're investing in the next generation of engineers - people with a few years’ experience under their belt, but who are hungry to learn, travel, career-focused and want to grow with a company on an upward curve.

The company are open minded about your background – as long as you have worked as a Controls / Automation Engineer for 2 years or more and have a fantastic attitude to learning they will invest in training and getting you up to speed in their industry.

You'll need:

• Around 2–5 years of experience writing control software (PLC programming, C)
• The flexibility and mindset of a “Swiss Army knife” engineer - happy to switch hats as needed
• A driving licence and a willingness to travel nationally and internationally for customer installs, testing and commissioning

There’s a strong, close-knit team here who support and look out for each other, so you’ll be working in a positive environment under a forward-thinking CEO who is determined to create the right environment to support your development.

Some practical details:

• Based in the office 50% of the time (Nottingham) with 50% travel
• Travel will be mainly in the UK, but also the EU, USA, even New Zealand recently
• £200 per shift for out-of-hours support, on a fair rota system

You’ll need to be up for getting stuck in - sometimes working late on-site, sometimes handling a tricky customer install abroad.

But if you like the sound of being part of a company that recognises and rewards commitment (they just gave a significant raise to one of the team who has only been with them a few months because of his work ethic!), it might be a perfect fit.

Get in touch to find out more - we’re ready to get things moving if you are!

We welcome diverse applicants and are dedicated to treating all applicants with dignity and respect, regardless of background.
