Our client is investing heavily in new talent and they’re looking for a Gas Turbine Technician/Mechanic who wants a long‑term, stable career in a niche and highly respected engineering environment. You’ll work on Honeywell 131‑9 and ALF 502/507 engines, supporting strip, build, inspection and test activity within a close‑knit, high‑standards team.

Why this role appeals to the right person

• You’ll receive extensive training, structured development and full support to progress.
• You’ll gain exposure across departments, learning the full lifecycle of gas turbine production.

• Confident interpreting technical manuals, drawings and data
• Willingness to rotate between departments and learn new areas as the business evolves
• Commitment to long‑term development — they invest heavily in training and expect the same dedication in return
