Job opportunities

Are you an experienced lift or mechanical engineer who would value passing on skills to others?

Specialist training provider, Eastwood Park, is recruiting an additional Lift/mechanical Engineer to its training team.

You do not need previous experience of delivering training; however, you must be committed to progressing your training certification.

This is an excellent opportunity for the right person who is looking to develop their career with a leading international training business.

Experience in installations, maintenance and repairs is essential.

This role will involve travel so it is essential that you hold a full UK Driving Licence.

If you have experience as a Sterile Services Manager, Supervisor, or Technician, we would like to hear from you. Ideally, you will be qualified to A1/TAQA standards but this is not essential as we can train you and work with you to become a qualified Assessor. 

You will visit learners in their workplace to assess their competence against accredited and national decontamination qualifications. You must be able to communicate confidently and effectively with learners, colleagues and clients. Excellent organisational and IT skills are also required as you will use an electronic portfolio system to maintain assessment records.

We would like to hear from you if you are interested in working with us on a freelance basis in any area of the UK.
