They provide specialist advice on a wide range of inter-disciplinary including nautical services, marine engineering, and non-destructive testing. Due to the company’s ongoing success, they are looking to expand their current team and you could be their perfect next hire.

They are looking to bring on a person with a background as a Chief Engineer and day to day you will travel the world providing forensic style investigation of mechanical and engineering faults.

To be eligible for this role you need to:

  • Be a qualified Chief Engineer.

  • Have very good communication skills verbally.
  • Extremely strong written skills.
  • Your written English must read as if English is your first language (even if it isn’t).
  • Be a highly motivated and proactive individual.
  • Have good IT skills, including Microsoft Office.
  • Right to live and work in America - without sponsorship. 

It is rare this company are ever hiring due to the amazing retention rates they have. If they hire you, you won’t want to leave! But when they do it’s nearly always for expansion as it is now.

What’s more having our client on your CV is an absolute CV maker! Once they are on their in the future should you choose to leave them you will have your pick of who to work for.
