Field Engineer

Job description

Field Services Technician (Nights) | 4-on / 4-off | Door-to-Door Pay

Job Title: Field Services Technician (Nights)

Salary: £35,420 basic + £3,600 night allowance (Realistic OTE £43,000+)

Location: Field-based (London & Surrounding Areas)

Shift Pattern: 12-hour shifts, 4-on / 4-off

Position: Permanent

We are currently recruiting for a global leader in intelligent transportation solutions, the team responsible for the technology and fare collection systems that keep London’s TfL network moving. This isn’t just another field role; it is a permanent position with a company known for high engineering standards and a culture where people stay for the long haul.

Why this is a win for an Engineer:

The Door-to-Door Pay Advantage This is a true home-start role. You get a fully equipped Ford Transit van, fuel card, and tools, but here is the best part: you are paid from the second you leave your house until the second you get back. Because your shift is 12 hours, anything beyond that window, including your travel time home, is automatically paid as overtime. You are never giving away your time for free.

Guaranteed Growth & Paid Certifications Because you are working on critical TfL infrastructure, your earning potential only increases as you progress. This company heavily invests in your professional value; there is massive potential to earn new engineering certifications fully funded by the business. They have a clear track record of moving technicians into Senior and Team Lead roles.

The Lifestyle The 4-on, 4-off night shift pattern offers a consistent rhythm and long blocks of time off. With a starting package of over £39,000 before overtime, and a realistic OTE of £43,000+, it offers both financial and career stability in a sector that never slows down.

What you need:

• A recognised qualification in Electrical, Mechanical or Telecoms engineering (essential for rail environments).
• At least 3 years of engineering experience to handle independent fault-finding.
• Experience with night shifts and a full UK driving licence.

The Package:

• Fully equipped Ford Transit (Home-start).
• Paid private healthcare & strong pension scheme.
• All travel time paid (Door-to-door).
• Bank holidays offered as time off in lieu.
