Job description

Technical Coordinator – Organised, Unflappable, and Slightly Obsessed with Details?

Location: Lincolnshire
Salary £30-32K pa

The Role (AKA: The Glue That Holds It Together)


Let’s be honest: engineers love to create, but they’re not always great at the admin.

That’s where you come in. As a Technical Coordinator, you’ll be the ultra-organised, cross-functional multitasker who makes sure the brilliant stuff engineers dream up is properly documented, tracked, compliant, and ready to actually build.

You’ll support the engineering team day to day, working closely with manufacturing, procurement, and other departments to keep projects moving and records in shape.

If you’re a natural at managing files, wrangling documents, and keeping things on schedule — and you actually enjoy that kind of thing — read on.

What You’ll Actually Be Doing

  • Running daily Toolbox Talks (yes, that’s a real thing)
  • Managing Engineering to Order and Engineering Change Requests
  • Keeping on top of things like switch plates, wiring numbers, rating plates, decals, and more
  • Handling the design and procurement of digital artworks (stickers, decals, etc.)
  • Maintaining build and test records, plus calibration certs
  • Printing, reviewing, and circulating engineering schematics
  • Generally being the calm, collected person everyone turns to when they need something sorted — fast

 What You’ll Need to Bring

  • Level 3 in Engineering or working towards it
  • Solid experience in a technical or coordination role, ideally in engineering or manufacturing
  • Strong organisational and time management skills
  • Proficiency with Microsoft Office (and bonus points for Illustrator or document control systems)
  • A clear communicator who doesn’t get fazed by jargon or shifting priorities
  • A firm grasp of engineering documentation and how production actually works

You Might Be a Great Fit If…

  • Your folders have folders
  • You know your way around a schematic, even if you didn’t draw it
  • You have opinions about label design and file naming conventions (and they’re good ones)
  • You’re a proactive problem-solver who thrives on order
  • You can multitask like a pro without breaking a sweat

What You May Not Love (But We’ll Be Real With You)

  • Yes, some of this is repetitive — process and precision are part of the job
  • You’ll be working across departments, and not everyone speaks the same ‘language’
  • There will be days when it feels like 10 people need 10 things… at once
  • You'll deal with admin-heavy tasks like tracking calibration certs and reviewing labels — detail fatigue is real, but necessary

Why It’s Worth It

  • You’ll be central to making sure innovative products actually make it out the door — correctly and on time
  • You’ll bring clarity and control to a fast-paced, technical environment
  • Your attention to detail will genuinely make a difference
  • You’ll be part of a collaborative, skilled team that values structure just as much as creativity

Ready to Take the Lead Behind the Scenes?

If you're the type of person who thrives on coordination, loves systems, and finds joy in the details that others overlook — we’d love to hear from you.
