Our client is a well-established international manufacturer that designs and produces high-performance hydraulic filtration solutions for both OEM and aftermarket applications. The Hydraulics Business Unit partners with leading equipment manufacturers across construction, agriculture, mining, industrial, and mobile hydraulic markets, delivering engineered filtration products that maximise system performance, reliability, and equipment life.

The Opportunity
This is a highly visible engineering position supporting the full product lifecycle of hydraulic filtration products. You'll work closely with Engineering, Operations, Quality, Sales, Marketing, Purchasing, and international colleagues to ensure products meet customer expectations for performance, quality, and cost.
You will also become the technical expert for hydraulic applications, supporting customers with product selection, cross-referencing, troubleshooting, and application engineering.
Key Responsibilities

You'll have the chance to work on technically challenging products, collaborate with international engineering teams, influence new product development, and play a key role in supporting some of the world's leading hydraulic equipment manufacturers.
