Salary: GBP 36,000–40,000

Our hire kit works hard on construction, infrastructure and defence sites across the UK. When it comes back to our Aylesford workshop, your job is to make it as good as new: test it, find the fault, repair it and get it ready to go back out, so it never lets our customers down.
We're looking for two Workshop Technicians to join a close, supportive team. Several of our technicians joined as PAT testers and learned the repairs on the job, so if you have a solid testing background and like fixing things, we'll train you on the rest.

PAT and in-service test, inspect and fault-find a wide range of electrical hire equipment
Repair and refurbish kit back to as-new: electrical work one day, mechanical the next
Complete test and repair records accurately and promptly
Keep parts and stock levels right so the workshop keeps moving
Help bring new products into the fleet
Work with the Hire Desk, Logistics and Sales teams to get kit back out on time
Follow our health and safety, ISO and compliance standards

Essential
PAT / in-service inspection and testing experience (City & Guilds 2377 a plus), or experience testing and repairing appliances or equipment (for example appliance, catering or coffee-machine repair, hire-depot or maintenance work)
Practical, hands-on repair skills and confidence with hand and power tools
Good fault-finding ability and attention to detail
Happy working from one workshop on a steady flow of refurbishment work
A team player who is keen to learn
