The opportunity

Packaged Water Solutions is seeking a capable, customer-focused Servicing Engineer to maintain, diagnose and repair packaged water systems at customer sites. This is a practical field role for an engineer who enjoys solving problems, working independently and delivering a professional service.

What you will do

  • Plan and complete scheduled servicing and preventive maintenance visits at customer sites.
  • Diagnose mechanical and system faults, identify root causes and carry out effective repairs.
  • Service pumps, valves, filters, UV equipment, vessels, gauges, controls and associated pipework.
  • Replace worn or failed components and undertake minor pipework modifications using appropriate materials and jointing methods.
  • Support installation, testing and commissioning of new or modified packaged water systems.
  • Carry out pressure, leak, flow and functional checks in accordance with safe working procedures.
  • Complete clear service reports, record readings and parts used, and communicate follow-up actions promptly.
  • Manage tools, test equipment, spare parts and vehicle stock so you are prepared for each visit.
  • Work safely on customer premises, following risk assessments, site rules and company procedures.
  • Build positive customer relationships and provide clear, practical advice on equipment condition and maintenance needs.

What we are looking for

  • Practical experience in plumbing, pump servicing, pipefitting, mechanical maintenance, plant-room work or field service.
  • Good working knowledge of pipework, pumps, valves and mechanical services.
  • Strong fault-finding skills and the ability to read drawings, schematics and equipment manuals.
  • Ability to plan site visits, manage your own workload and work effectively without close supervision.
  • Professional communication and a helpful, customer-focused approach.
  • A disciplined approach to safety, testing, service documentation and care of customer premises.
  • A full UK driving licence and willingness to travel to customer sites.

Useful additional experience

Any of the following would be advantageous, but applicants do not need to meet every point:

  • A recognised plumbing, mechanical engineering, pump, pipefitting or building-services qualification.
  • Experience servicing water-treatment equipment, filtration, UV systems, softeners or packaged plant.
  • Electrical awareness and experience working safely around controls, sensors and motor-driven equipment.
  • Installation, commissioning or field-service experience.
  • Relevant safety training, such as CSCS, confined-space, water-hygiene or lifting certification.
  • Experience producing service reports and using digital job-management systems.

What we offer

  • Competitive salary of £30,000-£50,000, depending on experience.
  • Occasional overtime and a performance-related bonus.
  • Company pension and paid annual leave.
  • Product training, professional development and scope for career progression as the company grows.
  • A varied field role working on a broad range of packaged water systems and customer sites.
  • Support from an experienced engineering team, with the autonomy to manage your service workload.
  • The opportunity to join a growing specialist engineering business.
