In brief
**Overview** This role is for an Aftermarket Sales & Service Engineer (Junior) with a specialist mining Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) that designs, builds, and commissions mineral processing plants. The company supplies equipment to mines both locally and internationally and is expanding its Contracts and Aftermarket team. The position is a hands-on, technical-commercial role for an early-career engineer involving approximately 70% travel to mine sites for equipment inspection and repair, with the objective of generating spares, service, and upgrade orders. On-the-job training is provided by an experienced aftermarket team, and a company vehicle is supplied. The recruitment process for this permanent role is managed by Square 1 Recruitment, a professional agency specializing in technical placements within the South African market. **What you will do** * Carry out site inspections, troubleshooting, and service work on installed process equipment. * Support installations, Factory Acceptance Tests (FATs), and commissioning. * Identify critical spares and wear-part trends during each visit, and convert them into orders. * Spot upgrade and retrofit opportunities before equipment fails, and build the business case for the client. * Issue clear, structured service reports within 48 hours of each visit. * Mobilise quickly to breakdowns and aim to fix issues first time. * Grow aftermarket revenue in your region while adhering to approved pricing. * Build long-term client relationships and resolve technical issues before they escalate. * Work safely and maintain permits, toolbox talks, and records in order on site. **Requirements (from the original advert)** * A Mechanical Trade / Diploma. * Hands-on experience with site work, maintenance, service or commissioning is advantageous. * Exposure to Minerals Processing Plants (ideally: thickeners, clarifiers, flotation cells, vacuum belt filters or filter presses). * A genuine interest in the commercial side: quoting, spares, and growing revenue. * Able to travel around 70% of the time, locally and internationally. * Valid driver's licence and a valid passport; a European passport would be beneficial. * Disciplined report writing and a strong safety mindset. **Who should apply** This position is suited for an early-career engineer who desires a hands-on, technical-commercial career on site rather than a desk-bound role. Ideal candidates will have some mining or plant exposure and an interest in growing aftermarket revenue. **Deadline** Not specified **Reference** Original posting: https://www.jobmail.co.za/jobs/it-computer/other-it-computer/east-rand/aftermarket-sales-service-engineer-junior-%7C-mining-process-equipment-id-7609260 Source: jobmail
