Diagnosing mechanical and engineering faults on marine equipment and vessels.

Carrying out servicing, repairs and preventative maintenance.

Installing, removing and overhauling marine engines and associated systems.

A practical, hands-on approach and the ability to work through mechanical problems.

Excellent attention to detail and commitment to health and safety.

Transferable skills are welcomed.

You could be a Car Mechanic, HGV Technician, Plant Fitter, Agricultural Mechanic, Vehicle Technician, Maintenance Engineer or have a military engineering background and be looking for an opportunity to move into the marine industry.
