The Role
The Service Engineer will be working within the Electrostatic Filtration Installation and Service Team, working on large Electrostatic Filtration systems. These systems are primarily found in large industrial flues, such as in Power Stations or Furnaces.

The Team will first be tasked with removing the collection bags at the base of the unit. These are particularly heavy and so candidates will need to be physically fit to be able to remove them. Once the bags are removed the Electrostatic plates need to be cut out and new plates welded into position.
Due to the placement of these filtration systems, the work can be incredibly dirt and dusty at times, as well as physically demanding due to the size of the equipment. Full PPE and masks are provided to ensure a safe working environment. There will also be call for working at heights and in confined spaces.
