Apply

Job Description:

Field Service Engineer – Post-Press Equipment (Electrical or Mechanical Bias)
Up to £40,000 basic (OTE circa £70k)
Company Car
Industry-Leading Staff Benefits
Overtime Paid Door-to-Door
UK Travel with Some Expectation of Overseas Work

 

Are you a skilled engineer who thrives on technical challenge, variety, and working with world-class machinery?


This is your opportunity to join one of the print industry’s most respected global manufacturers as they expand their UK post-press service team.

 

You’ll install, service, and support some of the most advanced post-press systems in the market — working with high-profile print and packaging sites across the UK, with occasional projects in Europe.

If you want a role where your expertise is genuinely valued, backed by first-class training, long-term development, and excellent earning potential — keep reading.

So long as you're based within good travel distance of the motorway network, this could be the ideal next step.

 

What You’ll Do

  • Install post-press equipment at customer sites in line with schedules and installation requirements.
  • Diagnose faults, carry out repairs, and provide technical recommendations.
  • Deliver operator training and machinery demonstrations to customer teams.
  • Complete pre-planned service visits and preventative maintenance.
  • Refer to technical documentation and work collaboratively with the wider engineering team.
  • Accurately report on all work carried out, including actions taken and any outstanding items.
  • Maintain professional, confident communication with customers and act as an ambassador for the business.

 

Why This Role Stands Out

  • Attractive Earnings – Up to £40k basic with realistic OTE of £60k–£70k (door-to-door paid overtime is plentiful).
  • Premium Company Car – “User-chooser” scheme; engineers currently drive Mercedes, Audi, BMW, etc.
  • Travel Variety – UK-wide coverage with occasional European trips — no week looks the same.
  • 25 Days Holiday Bank Holidays – Plus average holiday pay so you’re not penalised for time off.
  • Health & Protection Benefits – Medicash cash plan, life insurance, and private medical cover after 5 years.
  • Long-Term Stability – Excellent pension scheme with employer contributions increasing over time.
  • Overtime Rates – Time & a half after 18:00 and Saturdays, double time for Sundays and bank holidays.
  • Overnight Allowances – Paid for both UK and overseas stays.
  • Structured Career Development – High-quality training on global-leading equipment, with long-term progression opportunities.

 

What We’re Looking For

  • Recognised qualification in electrical or mechanical engineering or experience-based equivalent.
  • Experience working with print finishing / post-press machinery.
  • Strong diagnostic ability and a hands-on, methodical approach to problem-solving.
  • Confident communicator with a customer-focused mindset.
  • Comfortable travelling extensively and staying away from home when required (approximately 100 nights per year).
  • Full driving licence.
  • Based in England with good access to major motorway routes.

 

The Opportunity

This is a chance to join a financially strong, globally recognised engineering brand that invests heavily in its people.
If you’re looking for technical challenge, variety, autonomy, and a package that rewards loyalty and expertise — this is the career move you’ve been waiting for.
