Maintenance Technician Jobs

Maintenance technician jobs ensure that vital or important industrial machinery and equipment keeps working, and if necessary is repaired, often within strict time deadlines.

In planned maintenance, technicians would draw up an inspection schedule; make sure regular checks and maintenance tasks are completed; check and calibrate instruments and replace worn parts as required.

In emergency maintenance, technicians would compile staff rosters to provide 24 hour cover; ensure immediate reaction to emergencies; diagnose faults quickly and make immediate repairs.

In sales, maintenance technician jobs may be technical sales representatives or work on after-sales service.

Most maintenance technician jobs work 37.5 hours per week over 5 days. Shift work and emergency call-out work may also be required. Maintenance technician jobs may work indoors in a factory or production plant, or outdoors checking equipment on a building site.

Maintenance technician jobs must be interested in machinery and engineering and posses practical hand skills. Number skills are required for doing calculations. Maintenance technician jobs must also possess good communication skills.

Companies who employ maintenance technician jobs include engineering, production and manufacturing companies.

Success story

 

Having started as the new Exec Chef I knew there would be many changes to happen, including staffing.  As we were already an existing client of Stafffinders they approached me when I first started explaining their services and offering their assistance.  They have been professional in finding the calibre of staff I require on a permanent and temporary basis, this includes my three sous chefs that are the backbone of my team.
