Experienced plumbing/Heating Engineer (full time)

We’re looking for an experienced Plumbing & Heating Engineer to handle mainly reactive work — breakdowns, diagnostics, repairs, and day-to-day plumbing issues.

There will be some installations, but this is not an install-heavy role. If you’re good at fault-finding, thinking on your feet, and fixing problems properly, this will suit you.

Typical Work

• Boiler breakdowns and fault-finding
• Heating and hot water issues
• Reactive plumbing repairs
• Servicing and safety checks
• Occasional boiler or system installations (not the bulk of the work)

What We Need

• Gas Safe registered (essential)
• 5+ years’ experience in plumbing & heating
• Strong diagnostic and repair skills
• Comfortable working alone and managing your own jobs
• Full UK driving licence
• Professional, reliable, and not afraid of proper fault-finding

What You’ll Get

• Company van and fuel card (employed role)
• Overtime available but not expected
• Steady reactive workload — no chasing installs to hit targets
• Support when you need it, freedom when you don’t

Straight Talk

This role suits engineers who:

• Enjoy fixing problems, not just fitting new kit
• Can diagnose properly without guessing
• Take pride in leaving jobs right first time

If you cut corners or hate reactive work, this isn’t for you.

Job Type: Full-time

Pay: Up to £50,000.00 per year
