Controls & Electrical Technician
Location: Fakenham, Norfolk
Salary: £35,000 - £40,000
Full Time | Permanent | Monday to Friday
Like building machines rather than fixing them?
If you're happiest wiring bespoke equipment, solving electrical problems and seeing a machine come to life from concept through to commissioning, this could be the role you've been looking for.
We're recruiting on behalf of an established Norfolk manufacturer that designs and builds bespoke industrial equipment for customers across a range of industries. No production line maintenance. No repetitive breakdowns. Every project is different.
You'll play a key role in developing electrical control systems, supporting machine builds and helping deliver customer-specific engineering solutions from start to finish.
What you'll be doing
You'll work across the full project lifecycle, including:
*
Developing electrical and control solutions for bespoke machinery.
*
Selecting components including PLCs, HMIs, sensors, relays and safety devices.
*
Configuring and programming small PLC and HMI systems.
*
Producing electrical schematics and technical documentation.
*
Supporting the electrical build and wiring of machines.
*
Testing, commissioning and fault finding before customer delivery.
*
Working alongside mechanical engineers, production and suppliers to deliver high-quality projects.
*
Contributing ideas to improve existing products and future designs.
No two projects are the same, giving you genuine variety and the opportunity to make a real impact.
What we're looking for
You'll ideally have experience with:
*
Industrial electrical control systems.
*
Machine wiring or control panel assembly.
*
Reading and producing electrical schematics.
*
PLCs and HMI systems.
*
Electrical fault finding and commissioning.
*
Manufacturing, machinery or automation environments.
Experience with AutoCAD Electrical, EPLAN, motion control or 24V DC systems would be beneficial, but attitude and practical engineering experience are just as important.
Why consider this opportunity?
*
Work on bespoke machinery rather than repetitive maintenance.
*
See projects through from design to commissioning.
*
Join a growing engineering business where your ideas are valued.
*
Be part of a close-knit team with genuine responsibility from day one.
*
Monday to Friday working.
*
£35,000 - £40,000 salary.
*
Company pension.
*
Free on-site parking.
If you're looking for a role where you can combine electrical engineering, controls, problem-solving and hands-on project work, we'd love to hear from you
