Maintenance Engineer
This is a hands‑on engineering role within a high‑volume, fast‑moving manufacturing environment where reliability, responsiveness, and continuous improvement really matter.
You'll be working as part of a close‑knit engineering team, supporting production through a mix of planned, reactive, and improvement‑focused maintenance. The site is well‑established, but not standing still — there's ongoing investment, evolving processes, and genuine scope to influence how things are done.
What kind of engineer are we open to?
We're deliberately broad on background. If you're a maintenance engineer who enjoys fault‑finding, problem‑solving, and getting stuck in, this could be worth exploring.
Engineers typically come from:
* Manufacturing or FMCG
* Automotive or heavy industry
* Armed forces or engineering services
You'll likely have:
* Completed a recognised engineering apprenticeship
* Strong mechanical and electrical fault‑finding skills
* The ability to read and interpret drawings and schematics
* A practical, hands‑on approach on shift
Additional qualifications (HNC, IOSH/NEBOSH, CI tools, automation exposure) are useful, but not essential — what matters most is attitude, capability, and how you approach problems.
What does the role involve?
That depends partly on you — but typically includes:
* Planned and reactive maintenance across a varied site
* Diagnosing and resolving electrical, mechanical, and control faults
* Preventative and condition‑based maintenance
* Contributing to reliability and improvement initiatives
* Supporting automation and controls when required
There's scope here to get involved beyond “fixing breakdowns” — but how far that goes is a conversation.
What's on offer?
* Long‑term career development and progression opportunities
* A strong benefits package including bonus, pension, life assurance, and generous annual leave
* A stable, well‑run site with a supportive engineering culture
If you're reading this and thinking “I’d like to know what the kit is, how the team’s set up, and where this role could take me” — that’s exactly the point.
