Questech Recruitment’s Post

Ever wondered what keeps our tech-driven world running smoothly? It's the Service Engineers! 👷♂️🔧 They are the unsung heroes who ensure our machinery and systems don't miss a beat. These technical maestros troubleshoot, repair, and maintain equipment across industries - hopping from site to site and sometimes diving directly into the action at sea or on a bustling factory floor. They're not just savvy problem-solvers but also customer service wizards, explaining complex fixes in simple terms we can all grasp. For businesses, a sharp Service Engineer is invaluable. They keep downtime to a minimum and help avoid the kind of hiccups that can grind production to a halt. And in today's fast-paced world, can we really afford to pause? ⏱ For more information on Service Engineering jobs please email nigel@redchillirecruitment.com #ServiceEngineering #ProblemSolvers #EngineeringCareers

There is a difference between engineers, technologists, technicians, and artisans, primarily in terms of education, responsibilities, and scope of work. The debate and confusion are caused by: - the delayed implementation of the Engineering Professions Act and the Identification of Engineering Work Regulations (in the case of 🇿🇦) - companies, HR departments, and hiring managers not knowing the difference, leading to incorrect classification of roles and job titles - lack of opportunities, which leads to engineers competing for technologist and technician roles/jobs - overlapping responsibilities Agree?

Yes, I agree 💯 Here's a brief distinction between these roles according to my understanding: 1. Engineers: Design, develop, and oversee complex systems, products, and infrastructure. 2. Technologists: Apply engineering principles to design, develop, and implement solutions. 3. Technicians: Install, maintain, and repair systems, equipment, and devices. 4. Artisans: Skilled workers who specialize in a specific trade, like electrical, plumbing, or carpentry. Usually require a vocational training certificate or apprenticeship.

Hello, LinkedIn, I am interested in asking my network (for a friend 😉) of Multi-Skilled Maintenance Engineers and Engineering Professionals about the current trend of companies actively offering retention bonuses and signing-on bonuses to address skill shortages. Have you observed this practice in your industry? or sector of Manufacturing? If so, what does it look like at present? I would be keen to understand what employers are doing at the minute to encourage both attraction and retention of our very finest factory Multi-and highly Skilled and qualified factory Maintenance Engineers at this time. Thanks in advance; any thoughts are very welcome 😀 #Engineering #SkillShortages #RetentionBonuses #SigningBonuses #Moneytalks #multiskilledengineers #ukmanufacturing

Having a tough week with two team members missing? Struggling to get support from internal teams? The longer maintenance vacancies remain unfilled while production continues, the more it seems like additional Engineers aren’t needed. We’ve seen it time and time again: vacancies stay open for 3+ months, and then the questions start: ⚙ Do we really need someone on the night shift? ⚙ Why hire someone who can programme when we have contractors? ⚙ We’ve managed with just two shifts of Engineers, so why do we need more? Hang in there, Engineers! Just one more shift until the weekend!

As a maintenance personnel, it is important to know and understand the basic principles behind mechanical components to be successful in the field. Doing so will not only improve your results, but will make work easier for you. Also, having that basic understanding of mechanical components will help you articulate about mechanical components effectively, when training others and during interviews. Talking about articulating your experience with mechanical components, you can: 1. Provide specific examples of projects or tasks where you applied your knowledge of mechanical components. 2. Highlight any relevant certifications, training, or hands-on experience you have with different types of components. 3. Use clear and concise language to describe your ability to troubleshoot, repair, and maintain mechanical systems. 4. Share any notable achievements or challenges you've encountered while working with mechanical components. 5. Demonstrate your understanding of how different components interact within a system and how you've used this knowledge to improve processes or solve problems.
