The role
You will support customers throughout Yorkshire and the surrounding region, ensuring their homogenisation equipment continues to operate safely, efficiently and reliably.
Your responsibilities will include:
* Servicing, maintaining and repairing industrial homogenisers at customer sites
* Diagnosing mechanical faults and completing effective repairs
* Carrying out planned preventative maintenance and emergency breakdown work

* Preparing the correct parts, tooling and equipment ahead of each visit
* Completing accurate service reports and keeping customers informed throughout the work

* A good understanding of workplace health and safety
* Experience using lifting and slinging equipment safely
* The ability to work independently, methodically and to a consistently high standard
* Strong customer-facing and communication skills
