About the role
We are currently looking for a Service Engineer to join our Groundcare division. Based at our branch near Bristol, you would be joining a knowledgeable, experienced, friendly team. While the work is technically challenging, we provide a well-structured training program in conjunction with Kubota UK.
Much of the repair and service work is carried out on-site, and a fully expensed vehicle will be provided. This mainly mobile role means that every day is different, but you still retain the support of the base near Bristol. The majority of our work tends to be with contractors, councils, schools, golf courses, and private estates within the surrounding area. At quieter times, you may be expected to complete some workshop-based servicing.
About you
Previous experience in the agriculture, groundcare, or fine turf industry would be ideal, but product training is provided. You will already have a solid foundation, ideally possessing a good knowledge of diesel engines, transmissions, electrics, and hydraulics—many of these skills will be interchangeable from related industries.
Your experience or previous roles may include:
* Multiskilled Engineer
* Plant Service Engineer
* Construction Plant Machinery Engineer
* Mechanic
* Plant Engineer
* Diesel Engineer
* Mechanical Engineer
* Hydraulic Engineer
* Plant Equipment Engineer
* Groundcare Machinery Engineer
Essential skills and experience:
* Full UK Driving licence
* Knowledge of diesel engines, transmissions, electrics, and hydraulics
* Excellent customer service skills
* Maths and English to GCSE level
* A qualification in land-based or mechanical engineering
