Workshop Engineer – Foodservice Equipment
Location: Bolton

Join a Family Business That Puts People First – and Wins Awards Doing It

My client is on the lookout for a hands-on, switched-on Workshop Engineer to join their close-knit team at their Bolton head office. They’re a proudly family-owned business with a big reputation for quality, reliability, and doing things the right way—and the industry awards to back it up. If you're looking for more than just a job and want to work somewhere that truly values its people, this could be exactly what you’re after.

What You’ll Be Doing:

You'll be servicing and repairing a wide range of commercial foodservice equipment—gas, electric, warewashing, and refrigeration—right in the workshop at my client's Bolton HQ. You’ll be part of a solid team that takes pride in getting things right before the equipment heads out to customers across the UK. You'll report to the Workshop Manager and work closely with the technical and projects teams, so your skills and contributions will always be seen and valued.

What They’re Looking For:

• Hands-on experience with gas/electric catering equipment, warewashers, counter fridges, etc. (Backgrounds in commercial kitchens, white goods, or technical servicing all considered)

• A practical problem-solver with a can-do attitude

• Detail-focused and well-organised—you can handle multiple jobs without breaking a sweat

• A team player who shares knowledge and is always up for learning

• Good communication skills and a strong sense of pride in your work

• COMCAT gas qualifications and microwave testing are a bonus—but training can be provided for the right person

What’s In It for You:

• Genuine career development with training and long-term growth

• 20 days holiday + bank holidays, plus an extra day each year you stay (up to 4 additional days)

• Your birthday off—on them, just to say thanks

• Company pension and sick pay

• A friendly, supportive team where you’re not just a number
