Looking for a hands-on role where no two days are the same? Join a fast-growing Calibration & Maintenance team supporting cutting-edge engineering operations in Stevenage.
This is a fantastic opportunity for a multi-skilled Electrical Maintenance Operator who thrives in a dynamic, high-tech environment and enjoys solving real-world engineering challenges.
What You’ll Be Doing
You’ll be part of a multi-disciplinary team responsible for maintaining and repairing a wide range of plant and process equipment, including:

Expect a varied, technically engaging role where you will:
*Carry out preventative and reactive maintenance
*Diagnose faults and support defect investigations
*Maintain accurate service and maintenance records
*Support operational teams to keep critical systems running
Why This Role Stands Out
This is more than a maintenance role; it’s a chance to work on complex systems in a highly respected engineering environment where your skills genuinely make an impact.
If you’re looking for a role where your engineering expertise directly contributes to national and international defence capability, then this is it.
What We’re Looking For
