For individuals who can take the initiative but work well within a team.

The role**:**

Are you ready to dive into a role that keeps you at the forefront of marine engineering? Fugro is looking for a skilled Fitter to maintain, troubleshoot, and repair the mechanical and hydraulic systems on our cutting-edge jack ups. Your expertise will be vital in ensuring the smooth and safe operation of these impressive machines.

In this exciting role, you'll perform regular maintenance, address faults promptly, and conduct necessary repairs with precision. Your proficiency in reporting and documenting mechanical tasks will ensure clear communication and traceability of all maintenance activities.
