The Role

As the Lubrication Engineer, you will play a key role in:

• Delivering technical support programs and providing expert application engineering.
• Troubleshooting and resolving technical issues for customers in a timely and effective manner.
• Providing tailored lubrication solutions and maintaining the highest standard of customer service.
• Self-managing tasks and priorities to meet deadlines and exceed customer expectations.

This position requires a hands-on, solutions-driven individual with strong technical ability and a proactive approach to client service.
