About us

Arfon Engineering Services is a small business in Wirral. We are a professional and agile team with the goal of providing exceptional engineering services. Our business is established and is part of a large global pump manufacturing organization with workshops in Merseyside and North Wales. Due to continued growth and business expansion, we are looking for pump / electro-mechanical fitters to join our team on a permanent basis. Arfon Engineering (part of the Wilo Group) are specialists in the pump/rotating equipment maintenance and repair industry. We have a highly skilled team of repair and service engineers who supply, install and maintain clients’ pumps and pumping equipment predominantly in the North-west and North Wales, although our services do expand across the UK. We are a well-respected and established business, noted for our quality and support within the industry. We have long-term business with customers such as the NHS, Police, local authorities, water utilities, food, pharmaceutical and many other industrial and commercial customers that require continual support.

We are looking for time-served individuals that have sound electrical and mechanical backgrounds in installation, repair, maintenance, servicing and problem solving, with a good understanding of mechanically and electrically driven pumps and control systems. It would also be advantageous if you have the skill set to rewind and repair industrial electric motors (armature winders).

However, if you do not have any electrical experience or do not have motor rewind experience, we have similar opportunities for mechanical fitters and pump engineers.

Arfon Engineering / Wilo are known for being investors in people and are committed to further developing existing skillsets through specific training courses. We produce quality engineers and are excited about growing our team further.

This position offers a genuine career opportunity for the right individuals and there are options for career development if it suits the successful applicant.

Whether you are an experienced pump engineer, armature winder, technician or fitter - or you have a background in a similar industry - please get in touch with us. If you are looking to develop your career or are considering a career change, Arfon may have the opportunity you are looking for. Most importantly, we are interested in your enthusiasm, positive attitude, and your willingness to grow within the business.
