Marketing Manager

<h2>Mobile Plant & Accommodation Engineer 
Glasgow | Depot & Field-Based | Permanent</h2>
Jackson Hogg are supporting a well-established industrial services business with the appointment of a Mobile Engineer to support operations across Glasgow and the wider Central Belt. 
 
This is a hands-on, field-focused role where you’re trusted to diagnose issues properly and get equipment back into service quickly, not just patch fixes.
<hr>
<h3>Why this role exists</h3>
Demand across plant, accommodation and welfare equipment remains high, with assets constantly out on hire. To maintain service levels and avoid downtime for customers, the business needs an engineer who can respond to breakdowns, manage their own workload, and keep equipment moving.

<hr>
<h3>What you’ll be doing</h3>
You’ll split your time between depot work and attending site-based breakdowns across the region:

<ul>
	<li>Diagnosing and repairing plant machinery, accommodation units and small tools
	<li>Responding to customer breakdowns on-site, working efficiently to minimise downtime
	<li>Completing service, maintenance and pre-hire inspections to meet hire commitments
	<li>Carrying out electrical fault finding and diagnostics on mobile plant (excavators, dumpers, telehandlers)
	<li>Completing welding and fabrication work where required (training available if needed)
	<li>Handling cosmetic repairs, including panel work and touch-ups
	<li>Managing van stock and parts requests through the depot
	<li>Recording damage and ensuring accurate job documentation for customer billing
</ul>

<hr>
<h3>What they’re looking for</h3>
This suits someone used to working in the field, thinking on their feet and taking ownership:

<ul>
	<li>Background in plant, mechanical or field service engineering
	<li>Strong fault-finding ability across mechanical and electrical systems
	<li>Comfortable working independently across multiple sites
	<li>Welding experience ideal, but not essential
	<li>Full UK driving licence
</ul>

<hr>
<h3>What matters in the Glasgow market</h3>
Across Glasgow and the Central Belt, good mobile engineers are consistently in demand. Most businesses are competing on:

<ul>
	<li>Basic salary vs overtime potential
	<li>Call-out expectations and coverage area
	<li>Quality of vehicle and equipment provided
</ul>
Engineers in this space typically move for:

<ul>
	<li>Less travel / better territory coverage
	<li>More structured hours vs constant reactive call-out
	<li>Stability over contract-heavy or agency-led environments
</ul>
This role offers a balance – consistent work, structured support from the depot, and a realistic geographic patch rather than UK-wide travel.

<hr>
<h3>Working setup</h3>

<ul>
	<li>Coverage across Glasgow and Central Belt
	<li>Depot + site-based role
	<li>Company vehicle provided
	<li>Autonomous role with backing from an experienced depot team
</ul>

<hr>
<h3>Key expectations</h3>

<ul>
	<li>Work safely and comply with all H&S procedures
	<li>Maintain tools, vehicle and work standards
	<li>Represent the business professionally on-site
	<li>Keep paperwork accurate and up to date
</ul>

<hr>
<h3>Next step</h3>
If you’re currently in a plant or field service role and looking for something more stable, with less chaos and better structure, this is worth a conversation. 
Apply directly or speak to Jackson Hogg for a confidential discussion.

Manufacturing Engineer x2

We are supporting a manufacturing business on a hands-on CNC engineering role, focused on developing, proving, and optimising machining processes directly on the shop floor.

This is not a traditional desk-based CAM role, and it is not sales or pre-sales focused. The position sits at the heart of machining performance, owning CNC methods from customer drawing through offline programming, prove-out, and into stable production.

The remit is to deliver robust, repeatable and cost-effective machining processes, with a strong emphasis on cycle time improvement, process stability, and continuous improvement at the machine.

<hr>
<h3>What the role involves</h3>

<ul>
	<li>Developing high-quality offline CNC programs for complex components, including multi-axis machining
	<li>Creating CAD models and defining machining strategies, tooling, fixtures, and setup documentation
	<li>Leading prove-outs, cutting trials, and process optimisation on the shop floor
	<li>Troubleshooting machining issues such as chatter, tool wear, dimensional variation, and alarms
	<li>Embedding improvements into standard methods rather than firefighting recurring problems
	<li>Applying lean and continuous improvement principles to CNC processes (e.g. time studies, waste reduction, setup optimisation)
	<li>Working closely with tooling suppliers, production teams, and engineering stakeholders
	<li>Supporting new machine introductions and capability development
	<li>Providing accurate cycle times and technical input to support bids and planning
</ul>

<hr>
<h3>What we’re looking for</h3>

This role will suit an engineer who:

<ul>
	<li>Has strong CNC machining and CAM experience (e.g. Powermill or similar)
	<li>Is comfortable moving between offline programming and hands-on shop-floor involvement
	<li>Enjoys improving processes at source rather than producing CAM programs in isolation
	<li>Has a solid understanding of machining principles, cutting tools, materials, and tolerances
	<li>Is confident supporting prove-outs, early production, and technical problem-solving
	<li>Values repeatability, robustness, and continuous improvement
</ul>

Backgrounds often aligned with this role include:

<ul>
	<li>CNC Machinists who have transitioned into CAM / process engineering
	<li>Manufacturing or Production Engineers with deep machining expertise
	<li>CNC Applications or Process Engineers in low-volume, high-complexity environments
</ul>

<hr>
<h3>Why consider this role?</h3>

<ul>

Full Stack Developer

Software Engineer (Full Stack, Polyglot) 
Our client is looking to hire 2 Software Engineers to join a high-impact, in-house engineering team supporting a nationwide business operating at scale. 
This is not a “build for the backlog” role. The systems you’ll work on directly shape how customers discover products, how thousands of colleagues do their jobs, and how a multi?billion?pound operation stays efficient day to day. 
Why this role? 
You’ll get breadth, ownership, and real-world impact:
<ul>
	<li style="margin: 0.0cm 0.0cm 8.0pt;">Build across the stack: Go, C#, TypeScript, Python
	<li style="margin: 0.0cm 0.0cm 8.0pt;">Deploy and run in AWS
	<li style="margin: 0.0cm 0.0cm 8.0pt;">Work with AI tools as part of your daily workflow — not a future experiment
	<li style="margin: 0.0cm 0.0cm 8.0pt;">Ship regularly and see your work used immediately
</ul>
There are no silos here. Engineers move across services, frontend, infrastructure, and tooling. If you like variety and solving real problems, you’ll feel at home. 
What you’ll be doing

<ul>
	<li style="margin: 0.0cm 0.0cm 8.0pt;">Building and evolving customer-facing platforms, internal tools, and operational systems
	<li style="margin: 0.0cm 0.0cm 8.0pt;">Working across APIs, services, frontends, and data pipelines
	<li style="margin: 0.0cm 0.0cm 8.0pt;">Pairing, reviewing code, and solving problems as a team
	<li style="margin: 0.0cm 0.0cm 8.0pt;">Shipping fast, learning quickly, and improving continuously
</ul>
What we’re looking for 
You don’t need to tick every box, but you should recognise yourself in most of these:

<ul>
	<li style="margin: 0.0cm 0.0cm 8.0pt;">AI-first mindset – you already use tools like Copilot, Cursor, or similar
	<li style="margin: 0.0cm 0.0cm 8.0pt;">AI in production – experience embedding LLMs, APIs, or agents into products
	<li style="margin: 0.0cm 0.0cm 8.0pt;">Automation / robotics experience – from RPA to physical systems
	<li style="margin: 0.0cm 0.0cm 8.0pt;">Cloud-native – AWS or Azure in real production environments
	<li style="margin: 0.0cm 0.0cm 8.0pt;">Polyglot engineer – comfortable picking up and switching languages
	<li style="margin: 0.0cm 0.0cm 8.0pt;">Full-stack capability – frontend, backend, APIs, data
	<li style="margin: 0.0cm 0.0cm 8.0pt;">Hands-on builder – scripts, CLIs, background workers, not just web apps
	<li style="margin: 0.0cm 0.0cm 8.0pt;">Modern architecture – serverless, event-driven systems, or breaking apart monoliths
	<li style="margin: 0.0cm 0.0cm 8.0pt;">Data-aware – SQL, NoSQL, and/or data pipelines
</ul>
How we work

<ul>
	<li style="margin: 0.0cm 0.0cm 8.0pt;">Psychological safety is non-negotiable
	<li style="margin: 0.0cm 0.0cm 8.0pt;">We pair, collaborate, and share ownership
	<li style="margin: 0.0cm 0.0cm 8.0pt;">No hero culture, no gatekeeping
	<li style="margin: 0.0cm 0.0cm 8.0pt;">Problems are surfaced early and solved together
</ul>
 

<ul>
	<li style="margin: 0.0cm 0.0cm 8.0pt;">Hybrid (3 days/week in the North East HQ)
	<li style="margin: 0.0cm 0.0cm 8.0pt;">Remote considered, with monthly on-site time
</ul>

• Technical Mentorship: Act as a subject matter expert within the business, guiding junior team members and maintaining high standards for code quality and mathematical validity. 
• Advanced Analytics: Use cutting-edge statistical methods to extract actionable insights from large datasets generated by our global fleet of autonomous machines. 
 
Who We’re Looking For 
• Experience: Significant professional experience (typically 5+ years) in Data Science, Applied Mathematics, or a simulation-heavy Engineering role. 
• Education: An advanced degree (MSc or PhD) in Mathematics, Physics, Computer Science, or a related quantitative field. 
• Modelling Expertise: Proven track record in building operational simulations and predictive models that have been used in a commercial or industrial context. • Technical Stack: Expert-level proficiency in Python (specifically libraries like NumPy, Pandas, and SimPy) and a strong working knowledge of C++. 
• Soft Skills: The ability to communicate complex technical findings to non-technical customers and internal leadership. 
• Tooling: Familiarity with modern data visualisation tools and version control (Git) in a collaborative environment.

Geopura is a growing, innovative clean energy technologies company who enable the production, transport, and use of zero-emissions fuels with innovative and commercially viable technology to decarbonise the global economy. Partnered with Siemens Energy, they are committed to 100% clean, renewable energy, independent from the grid, wherever and whenever it&rsquo;s needed

Geopura is a growing, innovative clean energy technologies company who enable the production, transport, and use of zero-emissions fuels with innovative and commercially viable technology to decarbonise the global economy. Partnered with Siemens Energy, they are committed to 100% clean, renewable energy, independent from the grid, wherever and whenever it’s needed

Clean energy without limits

The organisation’s headcount plan was ambitious, and required an expanded recruitment capability to deliver it, but with varying recruitment volumes throughout the year, they needed a flexible solution. Geopura considered hiring an in-house recruiter, but the niche roles they were looking to fill, combined with the variability of their recruitment requirements and limited employer brand within the market meant that this solution wasn’t viable. They also considered expanding their use of recruitment agencies, but the unpredictable costs involved in this were difficult to align with their plans.

Geopura’s growth was starting to accelerate in 2022, but that came with its own problems

By placing one of our talent partners on-site, on a scalable basis from two to five days per week, we were able to optimise their recruitment process from start to finish and help them achieve their headcount plan. Our process started with an in-depth audit of their recruitment process, from job specification writing and job board usage analysis to interview technique and offer management. From there we took detailed briefs of the roles on offer and got to work sourcing candidates directly through our talent partner, with assistance from our wider, specialist recruitment team, and created a preferred supplierlist for the specialist roles we didn’t have the expertise to fill ourselves.

To assist Geopura in their ambitious growth journey, Jackson Hogg proposed our flagship Talent Partnership service.

Our talent partner assisted in creating an apprenticeship scheme to foster new talent, and by optimising the recruitment process and controlling all activities centrally, time to offer was reduced by 22%. This all allowed Geopurato achieve their headcount plans, continue their growth journey and focus on their innovative technologies rather than recruitment. Due to the success of their first 12 months, Geoupura extended their contract by a further 12 months.

Due to the success of their first 12 months, Geopura extended their contract by a further 12 months.

Through 12 months of Talent Partnership, Geopura hired 25 people, 92% of whom were sourced either directly or by Jackson Hogg.
