Start your career working on turbine engines – not just learning about them.
We’re looking for a mechanically minded, detail-focused person to join our workshop as an Apprentice Gas Turbine Overhaul Technician.
This is a hands-on role working with large industrial gas turbines, similar in principle to aircraft engines, specifically GE’s LM2500 which are used across the energy sector. If you’ve studied aircraft maintenance, gas turbine technology, millwrighting, or rotating equipment, this is a direct pathway into industry.
What you’ll do initially
- Clean and prepare turbine components for inspection
- Support strip, inspection and rebuild processes
- Carry out basic inspection and measurement tasks
- Follow technical manuals and QA processes
- Assist experienced technicians with repairs and assembly
This work is critical, it underpins the quality and reliability of every turbine we overhaul.
What you’ll grow into
- Component inspection and defect identification
- Engine troubleshooting and diagnostics
- Complex rebuild and repair work
What we’re looking for:
- Recent graduate (or final year) from:
- Gas Turbine Technician programs
- Aircraft Maintenance / AME programs
- Millwright or heavy mechanical foundation
- Wind turbine or rotating equipment training
- Engaged and interested in engines, turbines, and how things work
- Strong attention to detail and pride in your work
- Comfortable working with tools, manuals, and procedures
It would be an added bonus if you already had some workshop or hands-on mechanical experience, in particular experience with inspection processes or non-destructive testing (NDT) concepts.
Why this role
- Work on massive, high-value turbine engines, not generic equipment
- Clear development pathway into advanced technical roles
- Learn from experienced technicians in a specialised field
- Build skills that transfer across aviation, energy and industrial sectors
- Get 20 days of paid vacation leave a year, plus a day off for your birthday!
What success looks like
- Within 12–24 months, you’ll have:
- Strong capability in turbine disassembly, inspection and rebuild
- Confidence working to technical manuals and QA standards
- A pathway into more complex troubleshooting work
