    • Strong understanding of mechanical systems including hydraulics and pneumatics.
    • Ability to interpret technical drawings and service documentation.
    • Confident with diagnostic tools and software.
    • Excellent attention to detail and commitment to quality standards.

    • Half‑day Fridays.
    • Life assurance and enhanced company sick pay.
