Marine Electronics Technician · London
The Opportunity
This is a technical role built on genuine autonomy. Working under limited supervision, the successful candidate diagnoses, repairs and modifies live marine electronic systems onboard commercial vessels, drawing on real command of electronics theory and circuitry, not a script. Every assignment is worked from complex schematics and manuals, closed out with a service report that stands as the technician’s own record of judgement.
The Impact You Will Have
- Sole technical authority for marine electronics across a defined London patch
- Direct responsibility for keeping vessels operational across radar, ECDIS, satcom, GPS, gyrocompass, autopilot
- Trusted to run statutory radio surveys and APTs on VDRs, keeping ships compliant
What Success Looks Like
- Strong grounding in electronics theory, confident reading schematics unsupervised
- GMDSS Radio Operator Maintainer licence held, or close to it
- Physically fit, comfortable climbing masts and ladders, working outdoors in all weather
- A self-starter who takes a job from diagnosis to sign-off, no hand-holding
What Is on Offer
- Strong base plus overtime allowances
- Direct exposure to sophisticated navigation, safety and satellite systems across a varied fleet
- Full autonomy to manage your own territory and a reputation clients ask for
- A long-term career in a company reshaping this function, not a stopgap
- This is for a technician ready to own the work, not learn on it. Apply now.
