Metalis are supporting a global machine tool specialist who provide engineering solutions to a prestigious client base, including Rolls Royce, McLaren F1, and BAE Systems.

This is a fantastic opportunity to join an international business that invests heavily in training and development - including overseas training courses in Milan to upskill their engineers.

The Role

As a Service Engineer, you'll travel to customer sites across the UK (primarily the Midlands region) to carry out installation and service work on a range of machine tools, typically 3-axis milling machines.

Work will include:

  • Installing rotary tables, involving panel wiring and electrical integration.
  • Servicing and troubleshooting machine tools.
  • Assisting with machine testing, program editing, and parameter setting.
  • Supporting customers with technical issues to ensure job satisfaction.

Occasional overnight stays are required (sometimes none, occasionally up to twice per week). All expenses are fully covered.

Daily Responsibilities:

  • Attend installation/service jobs, pre-scheduled via iPad.
  • Retrofit rotary tables to 3-axis milling machines.
  • Carry out panel wiring and 3-phase electrical work.
  • Work with Fanuc (and occasionally Heidenhain/Siemens) systems - training provided if required.

What We're Looking For

  • Good electrical engineering background.
  • Previous experience wiring machine tools is desirable.
  • Knowledge of machine interfaces / Fanuc systems (training provided if required).

What's Included

  • Company van (personal use allowed) + fuel card.
  • Fuel paid for outside of work
  • Paid travel to and from jobs, plus enhanced overtime rates (time-and-a-half on-site, standard rate for travel).
  • Flexible working hours depending on planned jobs.
  • Tools provided (with free replacements).
  • All expenses covered (choose your own hotels + meal allowances).
  • Opportunity to work across world-class manufacturing facilities.
