Hi everyone,
I'm looking to become a multi-skilled maintenance engineer in a factory environment as I am looking for a more local and permanent job. My experience is as an instrument technician and engineer in the oil and gas, chemical and petrochem industries (apprenticeship, NVQ 3, HND and IEng).
I have good experience of working on motor power and control circuits, motor drives, PLCs, pneumatic and hydraulic systems, valves, etc. so I have a good knowledge on the electrical side (although I am not an electrician) but minimal mechanical.
Does anyone have any advice on any ways (training courses, etc.) I can improve my chances on getting a multi-skilled maintenance position. Generally the roles ask for electrical biased so limited mechanical knowledge may not be such a problem.
Also any experience in what companies are looking for with these roles would be appreciated.
Finally I am not prepared to go back to college for a year.
Thanks in advance.
