Full Job Description
Meridian Technical Services Ltd are a 20 year old company specialising in the periodic pressure testing and refilling of high-pressure cylinders for the fire suppression industry. They are a busy and friendly place to work with a mix of staff in the office, workshop and drivers.

- Cleaning and preparation of cylinders including automated and manual sanding and paint spraying
- Overhaul of complex cylinder valves
- Refitting valves and refilling with specialist inert gasses
- Loading and unloading lorries/vans
Although industry specific training and instruction will be given, Candidates are required to have experience in a hands-on workshop environment and be able to demonstrate using their own initiative. - Counterbalance forklift training would be an advantage but full training will be given.
- Experience handling high-pressure gasses and cylinders will be a distinct advantage although this can be taught.
- Must have hands-on work experience using tools/machinery
