Salary: £40,000–£45,000 DOE + benefits

Location: Redditch

Arden Personnel is recruiting for a long-established, family-run manufacturer and distributor in Redditch who are growing their machinery division. They’re looking for a technically sharp, customer-focused Quality, Repairs & Installation Engineer to install and support specialist adhesive application machinery for B2B manufacturers across the UK and worldwide.

This isn’t a “same bench, same fault, same day” role. You’ll be the calm, capable person customers rely on to diagnose issues properly, fix them efficiently, and feed back improvements that raise quality across the fleet.

Why This Role Stands Out

£40,000–£45,000 DOE plus a strong benefits package

UK and international travel including monthly trips to the USA (on average)

Variety: installs, commissioning, fault-finding, training and improvements

Work with specialist machinery and global customers

Strong benefits: pension, life cover, long-term sickness cover, Virtual GP and more

The Role

You’ll install, test, commission and support adhesive application machinery at customer sites and remotely. You’ll also contribute to continuous quality improvements by reporting recurring issues and collaborating with the wider team/manufacturer to improve reliability and performance.

Deliver operator training so customers can use equipment confidently

Maintain and repair the company’s own production equipment

Support distributors and occasionally attend international trade shows

Travel expectation: typically one USA trip per month, sometimes week-long trips

What we’re looking for

Essential

Proven experience with mechanical and/or electrical machinery/equipment

Strong fault-finding ability (diagnose, don’t just swap parts)

Structured, solutions-led approach with good documentation habits

Confident customer communication (video/phone and on-site)

Able to work from technical documentation (manuals, drawings, installation instructions)

Willingness to travel UK and internationally (incl. regular USA travel)

Organised, able to work independently and manage follow-ups

Full UK driving licence

Desirable (not essential)

Electrical qualification (e.g., 18th Edition) or recognised engineering qualification

Experience installing/commissioning machinery

Exposure to adhesive / packaging / converting equipment

What’s in it for you? (Benefits)

£40,000–£45,000 per annum DOE

40 hours per week

30 days annual leave (including bank holidays), increasing with service

NEST pension contribution at 5%

Death in Service x4 salary

Long-term sickness cover (50% salary up to 2 years)
