About the roleManpower 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.
