At Technica Measurement, we deliver specialist measurement, flow and instrumentation support across the energy sector, enabling our clients to operate safely, accurately and efficiently. Our teams design, commission, maintain and verify critical instrumentation and control systems that underpin safety, operational performance and regulatory compliance. From natural gas to hydrogen, biomethane and carbon capture projects, our work supports both established infrastructure and the evolving energy transition.

​

These systems do more than provide operational data - they protect asset integrity, ensure process reliability and support the safe, efficient operation of critical energy assets. When instrumentation and control equipment perform reliably, clients can maintain production, minimise risk and achieve operational excellence.

​

In this role, you won’t simply maintain equipment - you’ll safeguard the performance, accuracy and reliability of instrumentation systems that are essential to critical energy infrastructure. Through precise technical delivery, attention to detail and proactive problem solving, you’ll help reduce downtime, prevent failures and ensure the continued integrity of plant operations.

​

As we continue to grow and support an evolving energy landscape, we’re looking for a skilled Instrument Technician who values technical excellence, accountability and continuous improvement in delivering installation, calibration, maintenance and repair services to our valued clients. Your expertise will play a key role in ensuring that instrumentation and control systems operate safely, accurately and efficiently throughout their lifecycle.

Why this role matters

Our instrumentation and control systems sit at the heart of safe, reliable and efficient operations across the Oil & Gas and wider energy sectors. When these systems perform as intended, our clients can operate safely, maintain production and meet regulatory requirements with confidence. When they don’t, the impact on safety, reliability and operational performance can be significant.

​

This role isn’t just about installation, calibration, maintenance or repair — it’s about ensuring the availability, accuracy and integrity of critical instrumentation that supports complex operational environments.

• Perform calibration, testing and fault-finding on a wide range of instrumentation and control equipment.

• Identify potential issues before they develop into equipment failures or process disruptions.

• Diagnose faults, determine root causes and implement robust, long-term solutions.

• Support commissioning, loop checks and system verification activities as required.

• Contribute to the continuous improvement of equipment reliability, maintenance practices and operational processes.

• Ensure all work is completed in accordance with company procedures, industry standards and site safety requirements.

• Represent Technica Measurement professionally on client sites.
