Bonuses: Annual Performance Bonus + On-Call Shift Allowances

Company Overview We are supporting a well-established international renewable energy business in the search for a Renewables Maintenance Technician to join their growing operational team in County Wexford, Ireland.

On‑call participation is a key part of the position, with additional allowances paid for weekday out‑of‑hours callouts and weekend cover. For planned interventions outside the local area, all business travel is organised and fully supported via the company’s internal travel booking platform.
