Founded in Gloucestershire in 1968, TBS Engineering supplies state-of-the-art, automatic battery assembly equipment to manufacturers around the world, employing more than 200 people.

Gloucester-headquartered global manufacturing equipment provider, TBS Engineering, is recruiting specialist engineers to support its customers around the world, with plenty of opportunity for international travel.

Serving customers across Asia-Pacific, Europe and the Americas, working for TBS – the world's 'premier provider' of automation machinery for the energy storage sector – offers a unique working lifestyle for technically skilled, Gloucestershire-based engineers, who will split their time between its Gloucester base and manufacturing facilities across the globe.

One of a number of benefits included in its recently launched employee value proposition, the chance to work overseas is an attractive prospect for experienced engineers who are keen to experience new cultures both personally and professionally, while enjoying great pay, flexibility and opportunities for career progression.

While its Gloucester plant and head office serves as the core of its global operations, it also serves customers from its hubs in Italy, the USA and Mexico – and is set to open a hub in India this year, too.

The company currently has openings for jobs that involve working overseas, including a vacancy for a skilled service technician, which requires extensive international travel to support customers with the assembly and commissioning of its development and production machinery, along with operator training.

Another opening for a controls engineer requires international travel four to five times a year, for approximately two to three weeks at a time, supporting control systems projects including the development and programming of complex automated machinery.

The global travel element could also be of interest to young people looking at apprenticeship opportunities with TBS Engineering, with a view to progressing into a role that requires working overseas when they're fully qualified.
