Love making things run better? Obsess over reliability, efficiency, and continuous improvement? This role puts you right at the centre of shaping the future of engineering strategy and asset care across multiple sites.
We’re looking for an Engineering Reliability Manager who can drive change, support teams, and make a real impact. If you’ve got the leadership skills to influence at every level, and the technical know-how to deliver smarter, more sustainable engineering, we’d like to talk.
What You’ll Do
Drive asset performance through a future-fit Asset Care strategy.
Support sites in building multi-year engineering and environmental plans.
Lead continuous improvement programmes that deliver real reliability and efficiency gains.
Embed Condition Based Monitoring and CMMS solutions that actually get used.
Boost environmental performance and ensure we’re compliant everywhere it matters.
Develop capability within the Engineering Leadership group and apprenticeship schemes.
Lead shared inventory rationalisation and optimisation (yes, that means making spares smarter).
What You’ll Bring
Proven experience in engineering performance and improvement, ideally FMCG.
Strong leadership and influencing skills, preferably across multiple sites.
Background in delivering capital engineering investments in process and packaging.
Supplier relationship management expertise.
Degree in an engineering discipline (extra points for postgrad or CI/project management quals).
Ideally some short shelf-life or high-care experience.
More than anything, you’ll lead with humility, inclusivity, trust, and good humour. Because great engineering is about people as much as machines.
Why You’ll Love It
We’re independent, proudly British, and produce some of the UK’s favourite foods. You’ll be joining 1700+ people across multiple sites, all passionate about doing things the right way.
Benefits include:
Competitive holiday allowance
5-7% non-contributory pension
Life cover and healthcare cashback plan
Cycle to work scheme
Subsidised products and services
Preferential partner rates
Annual performance-based bonus
Learning and development opportunities
The Extra Bit
We operate a co-ownership model. That means everyone has a stake, everyone has a voice, and everyone can shape our future. You’ll be encouraged to challenge the way things are done, connect with our purpose, and help make this an even better place to work.
Next Steps
If you want to make a measurable difference in how engineering is done across multiple sites, get your application in. Opportunities like this don’t sit around for long.
