Chemists/Scientists - Why You Should Apply Swap the lab bench for the open road: If you're a chemist, laboratory technician or laboratory analyst who knows your way around a GC, GC-MS or HPLC and you fancy a change of scene, this Field Service Engineer role could be it. No two days the same: One day you're installing a new instrument, the next you're diagnosing a tricky fault or talking a customer through best practice. You'll see different sites, different labs and different problems - not the same four walls. A real say in how you work: You'll plan your own days and manage your own patch. There's plenty of support from the in-house service team when you need it, but you won't be micromanaged. Company car sorted: You get a company car (usually a hybrid) or a car allowance if you've already got finance on a vehicle. All your business mileage, fuel and hotels are paid for - so the travel costs you nothing. Be honest with yourself about the travel: This role is around 80-90% out on the road, with overnight stays away from home most weeks. If that excites you rather than worries you, read on. Location: Home-based with UK-wide travel. What you'll do as the Field Service Engineer: Install, maintain and repair analytical instrumentation at customer sites, working hands-on with hardware, software and applications. Diagnose and resolve faults using a logical approach, with remote support from colleagues when you need it. Keep customers ahead of problems by advising on best practice to prevent unplanned visits. Write up clear service reports in the company CRM after each visit and manage your own spare-parts inventory. Spot opportunities to help customers with additional instruments, consumables or training, and flag them to the team. What you'll need to apply: A degree (or equivalent) in chemistry, analytical chemistry or another physical science Hands-on laboratory experience with analytical instruments such as GC, GC-MS or HPLC - including detecting faults and carrying out repairs Able and genuinely willing to travel and stay away from home for most of the working week, with a valid full UK driving licence Next Steps If you're a scientist, chemist, or laboratory technician who enjoys working with instruments hands-on and are open to a change, please hit apply. If you click ' Apply ', we may contact you via email, phone & text message regarding this job, other jobs (current and future), and related recruitment services.

No two days the same: One day you're installing a new instrument, the next you're diagnosing a tricky fault or talking a customer through best practice. You'll see different sites, different labs and different problems - not the same four walls. A real say in how you work: You'll plan your own days and manage your own patch. There's plenty of support from the in-house service team when you need it, but you won't be micromanaged. Company car sorted: You get a company car (usually a hybrid) or a car allowance if you've already got finance on a vehicle. All your business mileage, fuel and hotels are paid for - so the travel costs you nothing. Be honest with yourself about the travel: This role is around 80-90% out on the road, with overnight stays away from home most weeks. If that excites you rather than worries you, read on. Location: Home-based with UK-wide travel. What you'll do as the Field Service Engineer: Install, maintain and repair analytical instrumentation at customer sites, working hands-on with hardware, software and applications. Diagnose and resolve faults using a logical approach, with remote support from colleagues when you need it. Keep customers ahead of problems by advising on best practice to prevent unplanned visits. Write up clear service reports in the company CRM after each visit and manage your own spare-parts inventory. Spot opportunities to help customers with additional instruments, consumables or training, and flag them to the team. What you'll need to apply: A degree (or equivalent) in chemistry, analytical chemistry or another physical science Hands-on laboratory experience with analytical instruments such as GC, GC-MS or HPLC - including detecting faults and carrying out repairs Able and genuinely willing to travel and stay away from home for most of the working week, with a valid full UK driving licence Next Steps If you're a scientist, chemist, or laboratory technician who enjoys working with instruments hands-on and are open to a change, please hit apply. If you click ' Apply ', we may contact you via email, phone & text message regarding this job, other jobs (current and future), and related recruitment services.

Chemists/Scientists - Why You Should Apply Swap the lab bench for the open road: If you're a chemist, laboratory technician or laboratory analyst who knows your way around a GC, GC-MS or HPLC and you fancy a change of scene, this Field Service Engineer role could be it.
