Our Careers - Why you should come to KANE

KANE is a 60 year old, 2nd generation family business you've never heard of

But to our customer we're their most important supplier - If our equipment doesn't work, they can't work and our homes and workplaces won't be safe and warm.

We need talented people to help deliver our Essential Instruments with Outstanding Customer Service

We're an international business with half our sales outside the UK and our plan is simple, sustainable and self funded - £30 million sales by 2030

If you've never heard of us, ask your heating engineer about KANE flue gas analysers - we're the UK's best flue gas & engine exhaust analyser mfr for heating engineers & anyone testing engines

Here's why you should work with us

Pay & benefits - Our lowest salaries are higher than the minimum wage, our average salaries are higher than UK average, we adjust yearly for inflation and everyone is in our John Lewis Partnership style bonus pool.

We care for our team, offering flexible working hours, regular reviews, mentoring, mental & physical health insurance, zero cost loans & long service recognition.

We run quarterly staff surveys and host town hall meetings to discuss how we're doing.

New colleagues receive great career development & job satisfaction - in months you'll have new skills & responsibilities and on average stay over 8 years and we have many colleagues with 15+ years service.

Our modern HQ in Welwyn Garden City, the UK's 2nd garden city, is visble from the railway line & road bridge - We're a 5 minute walk to Welwyn's station & town centre.

Our second home in Atherton, Greater Manchester, is a 10 minute walk to the station & town centre.

Both are spacious and safe, on well lit roads with car parking, have EV chargers & bike racks, showers & break rooms

We take outreach seriously - for example, helping University of Hertfordshire Formula Students design & build cars to challenge other universities.

We work with other universities - Imperial & Brunel - and local schools & colleges. It isn't easy, given we have day jobs and are busy, but we know it's necessary.

We hope you'll want to work with us - a company you've never heard of - and be an important part of our future, not a small cog in a big company.

We enter competitions to see if we're on the right track - In 2021 we won 2 awards for Hertfordshire's Best Business & Best Customer Service and in 2022 we're up for a Queen's Award for Innovation

Finally, we have great values, big ambitions and a clear plan for growth - we walk the talk

Whatever role you apply for, you'll join a team that knows where it's going and why

Here's what you'll need to be successful at KANE:

Radical truth - You'll win our respect if you can be trusted

Customer at heart - You'll make us, our customers and our stakeholders happy if you help develop smart, relevant innovation whatever your role

Passion - It's obvious but you must enjoy what you do because we're too small to employ "jobsworths"
