Operations Technician – Instrumentation

Location: Avonbridge

Salary: £44,642 – £52,519 + up to 6% bonus, overtime and standby allowance

About the role

We’re looking for an Operations Technician (Electrical / Instrumentation & Cyber) to join our team, playing a key role in maintaining and protecting critical infrastructure.

This is not a traditional IT cyber role. Instead, you’ll work hands-on with Operational Technology (OT), supporting the performance, reliability, and security of systems that underpin essential gas transmission operations.

You’ll be primarily based at Avonbridge Compressor Station, with regular travel to surrounding operational sites as part of your day-to-day role.

This position is ideal for someone with an Instrumentation background who is looking to develop into the growing and highly sought-after field of cyber security within industrial environments.

What you’ll be doing:

Maintaining and supporting instrumentation, control systems, and cyber/OT assets across multiple operational sites
Working with PLCs, SCADA systems, industrial PCs, firewalls, and network infrastructure
Supporting the implementation of cyber security controls to protect critical systems
Carrying out routine maintenance, inspections, and fault finding
Investigating and resolving equipment failures, engaging contractors where required
Collaborating with central cyber teams to ensure system compliance, resilience, and readiness
Supporting cyber assurance visits, upgrades, and vulnerability management activities
Assisting with installation of new equipment and secure disposal of retired assets
Taking part in a standby rota following training

This is a unique opportunity to build specialist expertise while contributing to the security of critical national infrastructure.

About you

You’ll be a practical, hands-on technician with a strong operational mindset and a desire to develop into cyber/OT security.

Key experience and skills:

Background in Instrumentation & Control (I&C), Electrical Engineering, or Automation/Control systems
Experience working with industrial or operational technology environments (e.g. PLCs, SCADA, instrumentation systems)
Strong fault-finding, diagnostic, and problem-solving skills
Ability to plan, prioritise, and manage work across multiple locations
Comfortable working independently and as part of a wider technical team
Commitment to high safety and engineering standards
Ability to interpret engineering drawings and technical documentation
A proactive approach and willingness to learn and develop cyber capabilities
Full UK driving licence (essential)

We welcome candidates who may not yet have direct cyber experience but are motivated to build a long-term career in this evolving field.

What we offer

Annual bonus of up to 6% based on personal and company performance
26 days’ holiday plus statutory leave, with the option to buy more
Double-match pension – for every £1 you contribute, we’ll add £2 (up to 12%)
Flexible benefits including private healthcare, dental cover, travel insurance, and tech plans
10x salary life assurance
Financial protection in case of long-term illness or injury
Strong family-friendly policies including enhanced parental leave
Ongoing training, development, and career progression
24/7 Employee Assistance Programme
Support for professional memberships
