Junior Instrumentation Technician

Your new company

You will be joining a specialist instrumentation and electrical services provider that supports a wide range of industrial clients across sectors such as manufacturing, utilities, engineering and process environments. The organisation prides itself on delivering high‑quality installation, calibration, maintenance and commissioning support for a variety of instrumentation and control systems. You will be part of a growing team where professional development, hands‑on learning and long‑term career progression are actively encouraged.

Your new role

As a Junior Instrumentation Technician, you will work closely with an experienced engineering team to assist with both workshop-based tasks and field-based activities on client sites. This means you will gain exposure to a full spectrum of instrumentation work, from preparing, assembling and testing equipment in the workshop, through to supporting installations, maintenance and commissioning in real operational environments.

Your day‑to‑day responsibilities may include:

Assisting with the installation and wiring of instrumentation devices, sensors, transmitters and control panels.
Carrying out calibration, testing and repair tasks in the workshop and on customer sites.
Supporting fault-finding and diagnostics on instrumentation and basic electrical systems.
Helping prepare job packs, documentation and service reports.
Maintaining tools, equipment and a safe working space in both the workshop and client environments.
Travelling to customer sites to support field service, commissioning and maintenance work.

This role is designed to develop your technical capabilities, giving you hands‑on learning opportunities across varied equipment, environments and industries.

What you'll need to succeed

To be successful in this position, you will ideally be currently undertaking or recently completed an apprenticeship in electrical engineering, instrumentation engineering, or a related discipline. You should demonstrate a genuine interest in progressing your skills and developing a career in instrumentation and control.

Key requirements include:

A foundational understanding of electrical principles and instrumentation systems gained through apprenticeship or study.
A strong willingness to learn, take direction and build practical skills.
A positive attitude, good communication skills and the ability to work effectively as part of a team.
Basic problem‑solving abilities and a safety‑focused approach to all tasks.
A full UK driving licence or a willingness to work towards obtaining one (advantageous for site work).

What you'll get in return

You will receive structured training, ongoing mentoring and access to industry-recognised development opportunities as you work towards becoming a fully competent Instrumentation Technician. The organisation is committed to helping you grow, offering support with additional training courses, accreditations and specialist product knowledge.

In addition, you can expect a competitive salary, opportunities for overtime and exposure to a diverse range of projects, both in the workshop and out in the field. This position is an excellent stepping stone for someone early in their electrical or instrumentation career who is keen to build experience, confidence and long-term progression in a specialist engineering discipline.
