About the role

Robotic Service Engineer | Up to £60,000 + Company Vehicle | UK-Wide, Field-Based

Are you an engineer who thrives on variety, autonomy, and solving real problems on-site? We're recruiting on behalf of a growing name in industrial robotics and automation, looking for an experienced Robotic Service Engineer to join their UK field service team.

You'll be the go-to expert for customers across the UK, keeping their ABB, FANUC, and KUKA robotic systems running at their best — from planned maintenance to critical breakdown support. No two days look the same, and you'll have real ownership over the sites you support.

What you'll be doing:

🔧 Planned preventative maintenance (PPM) on industrial robotic systems

🔧 Diagnosing and resolving electrical, mechanical, and programming faults

🔧 Emergency breakdown response to minimise customer downtime

🔧 Robot mastering, calibration, backups, and system recovery

🔧 Supporting commissioning and re-commissioning after repairs or upgrades

🔧 Building strong, trusted relationships with customers on-site and remotely

What you'll bring:

✅ Proven experience servicing industrial robots (ABB, FANUC, and/or KUKA)

✅ Strong fault-finding skills across electrical, mechanical, and controls systems

✅ Ability to read and interpret electrical schematics and technical drawings

✅ Full UK driving licence and willingness to travel nationwide, including occasional overnight stays

✅ A calm, professional, customer-first approach — especially under pressure

Bonus points for:

⭐ PLC experience (Siemens, Allen-Bradley, or Mitsubishi)

⭐ HNC/HND or apprenticeship in Electrical Engineering, Mechatronics, Robotics, or Automation

⭐ Robot programming and commissioning experience

What's on offer:

💰 Salary up to £60,000, based on experience

🚗 Company vehicle, laptop, and mobile phone

📈 Ongoing manufacturer training and genuine career progression

🏦 Pension scheme + overtime opportunities

This is a fantastic opportunity to grow your career with a business investing heavily in its people and technology.
