Concept Projects Group is a fast-moving, forward-thinking engineering project team working across FMCG, construction, food production, and pharmaceutical industries. We pride ourselves on delivering innovative, high-quality solutions for our blue-chip clients.
The Role
We’re seeking a proactive and motivated Mechanical Engineer to support a range of exciting projects across multiple industrial sites in the North West. You’ll be involved from concept to completion—designing, developing, installing, and maintaining machinery, systems, and processes to solve real-world challenges and improve operational efficiency.
This is a hands-on, varied role where no two days are the same. You’ll need to be comfortable working on-site, adapting quickly to changing priorities, and delivering work to the highest professional standards.
What You’ll Do
* Provide mechanical solutions from design through to installation.
* Support and maintain manufacturing equipment—particularly in FMCG and pharmaceutical environments.
* Repair and overhaul motors, pumps, valves, bearings, and shafts.
* Modify and improve existing machinery and manufacturing lines.
* Work with utilities (compressed air, steam, water) and adapt piping systems.
* Fabricate, fit, and assemble components to technical drawings.
* Operate fabrication tools and plant equipment (training/licences provided if needed).
* Offer engineering expertise to our project management team.
What We’re Looking For
* Time-served or apprentice-trained mechanical or electrical engineer.
* Experience in a similar role, ideally in a fast-paced manufacturing environment.
* Strong bench fitting and machining skills.
* Solid understanding of design principles, materials, and technical drawings (CAD).
* Skilled in problem-solving, RCA, and continuous improvement.
* Ability to work independently or as part of a team, meeting tight deadlines.
* Excellent communication skills and confidence in a client-facing role.
* Basic Microsoft Office skills for reports and spreadsheets.
Desirable but not essential
* Experience working at height (MEWP/Scissor Lift).
* Background in blue-chip manufacturing.
* IOSH certification.
What We Offer
* £40,000–£50,000 salary (depending on experience).
* 23 days holiday + Bank Holidays (rising to 25 days after probation).
* Company pension scheme.
* Regular training and professional development.
* Inclusive employee benefits, including gym membership.
If you’re a problem-solver with hands-on skills, pride in your work, and a passion for engineering excellence, we’d love to hear from you.
