You’ll be based onsite at a customer’s facility, working in a customer-facing engineering stores environment. You’ll play a key role in making sure critical machine parts and components are available when needed — helping to keep operations running efficiently and reduce downtime.
This is a hands-on role where you’ll learn how stores, engineering, and customer service come together in a real working environment.
Successful candidates will undertake an apprenticeship in Customer Service. The level of qualification will depend on what current level of qualification you have achieved already.

Support the procurement and ordering of critical spares
Balance stock availability with cost control and efficiency
Maintain high standards through continuous improvement

Real-world experience in a customer-facing engineering environment
A recognised Customer Service apprenticeship
Clear progression into permanent and senior roles
What we’re looking for

Confident working with people and building positive relationships
A willingness to learn and get stuck into a hands-on role
Good attention to detail and problem-solving skills
An interest in the sector
Reliable, enthusiastic, and keen to build a long-term career
GCSEs (or equivalent), including English and Maths
Basic IT skills (e.g. Microsoft Office)
Able to travel to site and be based locally
No prior experience needed — just a great attitude and willingness to learn.
