• Ability to work independently on site and communicate effectively with wider engineering and operations teams.

• Comfortable working shifts and supporting a 24/7 operational environment.

Desirable Experience

• Experience with Hytrol or similar conveyor systems.

• Allen-Bradley / Rockwell PLC experience.

• Experience with VFDs, sensors, scanners, photoeyes and conveyor control systems.

• Experience within fulfilment centres, distribution centres, warehouses, parcel hubs or other material handling environments.

• Previous experience supporting large-scale automated logistics projects through go-live.

• Experience troubleshooting conveyor belt tracking and material flow issues.

Overtime & Contract Opportunity

There is significant overtime available throughout the project, with engineers able to work as much overtime as they want, subject to site/project requirements.

The initial requirement is through September 2026, with the potential for:

• Contract extensions beyond the initial assignment

• Continued support during the post-go-live phase

• Opportunities to move onto additional automation projects at other sites

• Potential for a longer-term pipeline of contract work

Ideal Candidate

The ideal candidate will be a hands-on controls/commissioning engineer who is comfortable working on the floor during a live go-live environment.

You should be confident troubleshooting problems under pressure, working directly with site teams and getting automated material handling equipment back into operation quickly.

Previous warehouse automation, distribution centre, material handling or conveyor commissioning experience is highly desirable.

This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced controls/commissioning contractor looking for high levels of overtime, immediate site work and the potential for longer-term opportunities across multiple automation projects.
