About the role

Manpower Engineering is recruiting on behalf of a global technology leader. You'll play a hands-on part building and testing advanced systems used in some of the world's toughest environments. If you enjoy turning schematics into robust, test-passed assemblies - and you take pride in neat wiring, clean documentation and first-time-right quality - this is for you.



What you'll be doing



Assemble electronic/electrical sub-assemblies and complete builds from schematics, drawings and work orders in an ISO9001 environment.



Wire and solder harnesses and cable assemblies; build control panels/cabinets; work on PCBs (SMT/through-hole), transformer assemblies, consoles and connectors.



Carry out heavy-duty cable wiring, deck cable assembly and control system outfitting.



Diagnose, fault-find and repair to PCB component level; run troubleshooting and functional tests.



Operate computer-controlled equipment as required.



Hit build times/efficiency targets for project integration and tooling/spares work orders.



What you'll bring (essential)



Proven panel wiring/looming (LV AC/DC) and confidence working from electrical schematics.



Soldering skills (through-hole and ideally SMT) with PCB rework and component-level fault-finding.



Exposure to control/data systems and awareness of high-voltage installations.



Strong focus on quality, schedule and safety with accurate documentation in ISO9001 processes.



Clear communicator, organised team player; calm under pressure and detail-driven.



Nice to have (desirable)



ONC (or higher) in Electrical/Electronic Engineering.



18th Edition (IET/BS 7671).



Fibre-optic handling/termination experience.



Background in shop-floor build/test, production processes and equipment.



Safety & compliance (QHSE)



Act in line with site QHSE requirements and personal accountability.



Proactively report unsafe or environmentally unsound acts/conditions so risks can be managed.



Why apply?



Build technology with real-world impact in a world-class engineering environment.



Varied, hands-on work across cutting-edge systems - every day is different.



Supportive team culture with opportunities to learn (including fibre-optic skills).



Day shift with an early Friday finish.



How to apply

Apply via the job board with your CV and a brief note on your panel wiring and PCB fault-finding experience. Shortlisting is on a rolling basis
