We are currently looking for a skilled Engineer to join the Lifecycle Services (LCS) team which sits within the Siemens Energy Subsea business in Ulverston. The LCS team are entering an exciting period of growth to support the growing success of the business, and there we are looking to increase our pool of Field Engineers.


A SNAPSHOT OF YOUR DAY

Our Field Engineers are specialists who install and maintain subsea connectors at our customers sites. A subsea connector is an electrical or fibre optic component used to link various subsea systems. Historically our connectors have been deployed in the oil and gas industry, however as the business grows we are looking to expand into the renewables sector. Our connectors are designed to operate in harsh underwater environments, withstand high pressure, extreme temperatures, and corrosive elements. Subsea connectors are essential for the efficient and reliable operation of subsea infrastructure and play a critical role in the safety and functionality of underwater systems.

The role itself is a demanding and ever-changing job which requires frequent travel globally, often at short notice. This aspect alone makes this job unique and interesting but also means we are looking for someone who is flexible and can reprioritise their personal lives when it is required.
