These are the skills that come up again and again in PLC, controls and commissioning job ads. Each one links to a hands-on course where you build real projects.
The PLC platform named most often in UK controls job ads. Employers expect you to build, download and fault-find programs in LAD and FBD.
Siemens LAD/FBD courseSenior and software controls roles ask for text-based PLC code: loops, data blocks, reusable function blocks.
SCL courseCommon across UK food, packaging and water sites. Ladder logic in Connected Components Workbench on a real Micro800 controller.
Allen-Bradley course"PLC/HMI/SCADA" is one of the most common phrases in these listings. Learn screens, alarms and trends in WinCC.
HMI & SCADA courseCommissioning engineers connect drives, remote I/O and SCADA. PROFINET, Modbus and OPC UA come up again and again.
Networks courseMaintenance and commissioning roles need VFDs, servo drives and safety PLCs. The skills that set you apart on site.
Motion control courseNew to PLCs? Start with the free Siemens S7-1200 ladder logic course.
Practical advice on your CV, the skills checklist recruiters use and how to start without experience.

Read moreA PLC programmer writes and maintains the control software that runs machines and process lines: conveyors, packaging machines, water treatment plants, robot cells. Day to day that means programming in tools like Siemens TIA Portal or Rockwell Studio 5000 and Connected Components Workbench, building HMI screens, commissioning new equipment on site and fault-finding when a line stops.
Experienced PLC, controls and automation engineer jobs advertised in the UK typically list salaries of roughly £40,000 to £70,000 a year, and senior roles go higher. Contract roles are often quoted per day. Apprenticeships and graduate roles start lower. Many listings on this page show the salary on the card.
Siemens (TIA Portal, S7-1200 and S7-1500) and Allen-Bradley (Rockwell Automation) are the two platforms you will see most often in UK job ads. Once you understand one of them well, moving to the other or to CODESYS-based controllers is much faster, because the IEC 61131-3 languages are the same.
Yes. Many engineers start in maintenance, as electricians or through apprenticeships and graduate schemes, then move into controls. What helps most is proof that you can program: small projects you built yourself, a simulator portfolio and a course certificate. Read our guide How to get a job as a PLC programmer without experience.
The listings come from Jooble, a job search engine that collects ads from job boards and employer websites. We filter them for PLC, controls, automation, robotics and maintenance roles. When you click a job, you apply on the original ad - ControlByte does not handle the applications.
Use the "Hiring in automation?" form on this page or e-mail contact@controlbyte.tech. We review every job and publish relevant PLC and automation roles, usually within 1-2 business days.
