Maintenance Technician

Location: Mobile - Covering the North East (Newcastle, Sunderland, Durham, Teesside) Salary: Competitive Starting Salary + Fully Kitted Van + Full Training Package

Are you a "natural" at fixing things?

Do you have a knack for taking things apart, figuring out how they work, and putting them back together? Perhaps you currently repair slot machines, domestic appliances, or coffee machines, but you're looking for a career with more "bite" and better long-term prospects?

We are recruiting for a busy, rapidly growing maintenance team in the North East, and we are looking for a Maintenance Technician who wants to stop just "fixing stuff" and start building a professional career.

The Opportunity

We don't need you to have a wall full of certificates. What we need is mechanical aptitude, a great work ethic, and a problem-solving mindset.

In exchange, we will invest in your development. We will provide the mentorship and formal training required to help you become a fully qualified Commercial Catering (COMCAT) Engineer.

The Role

Joining our mobile team, you will travel across the North East region, supporting our clients in the hospitality, leisure, and commercial sectors.

*

Fixing a Wide Range: You'll start by assisting with repairs on everything from commercial dishwashers and ovens to specialized leisure equipment.

*

Learning the Trade: You'll shadow our senior engineers, learning the ins and outs of commercial kitchens and gas safety.

*

The Mobile Life: You'll manage your own day via a company PDA, visiting different sites and meeting different challenges every day.

*

The Path to Qualification: We will put you through your formal Gas and Electrical modules to get you "ticketed" and increase your earning potential.

What are we looking for?

*

Hands-on Experience: You might come from a background in slot machine repair, white goods, vending machines, or general M&E maintenance.

*

The "Fixer" Mindset: You enjoy the challenge of a fault-finding mission.

*

Local Knowledge: You are based in the North East and hold a full UK Driving License.

*

Customer Face: You are professional, polite, and comfortable talking to site managers and business owners.

What's in it for you?

*

The "Golden Ticket": A clear, paid-for path to becoming a qualified Catering Engineer (a high-demand, high-salary trade).

*

Tools for the Job: A modern company van, fuel card, uniform, and high-end tools.

*

Stability: A permanent role in a recession-proof industry.

*

Team Culture: Join a growing firm where you aren't just a number—you're the future of our engineering team.
