Commissioning Engineer

Are you a proactive team player who enjoys problem-solving and seeing tasks through to completion? We're looking for motivated individuals to join our clients team as Commissioning Engineers in the control systems industry.
About the Role
We’re looking for a practical and motivated Commissioning Engineer to join our Control Systems team. You’ll play a key role in bringing industrial automation projects to life — installing, testing, and commissioning equipment for customers across the UK and Ireland.
This is a hands-on role ideal for someone with an electrical, mechanical, or maintenance background who enjoys solving problems on-site and is keen to grow their skills in automation and control systems.
Key Responsibilities

• Commission, test, and troubleshoot control systems on-site.
  
• Perform loop checks, I/O testing, and functional verification of automation systems.
  
• Make minor changes to hardware and software to resolve problems.
  
• Collaborate with project engineering teams to ensure successful project delivery.
  
• Complete commissioning documentation and test reports.
  
• Provide technical support and training to clients during handover.
  
• Ensure all activities comply with safety, quality, and company standards.
  Skills and Experience
  
• Practical experience (minimum of 2 years) in electrical, mechanical, or industrial work (e.g. maintenance, installation, or service).
  
• Strong hands-on and problem-solving skills, with good attention to detail.
  
• Ability to read and understand basic wiring diagrams or engineering drawings.
  
• Willingness to learn about automation, PLCs, and control systems (full training provided).
  
• Good communication skills and a positive, can-do attitude.
  
• Enjoys working as part of a team and takes pride in doing quality work.
  
• Flexible and happy to travel to customer sites, working a mix of days and nights.
  Desirable
  
• Some experience with automation, instrumentation, or industrial systems.
  
• Familiarity with any PLC brands would be an advantage, but not essential.
  Working Pattern
  This role typically offers a balanced mix of both day and night shifts—approximately 50/50 overall. However, shift patterns may vary depending on the needs of each project. While some assignments may be entirely during the day, others may require night work only. The 50/50 split is a general guideline, and actual shift allocation will be based on project-specific requirements at the time.
