Do you enjoy making a real impact — ensuring mission-critical systems run seamlessly where they matter most?

A leading international provider of advanced security and detection technology is looking for a Field Service Engineer to join its UK team, primarily to cover the West Yorkshire and North West regions.

• Acting as a trusted point of contact for customers — ensuring high satisfaction and operational excellence
• Travelling to sites across the Yorkshire and North West regions, often at short notice

You’ll play a vital role in maintaining public safety, working with industry-leading systems used across the aviation and security landscape.
