Keep the wheels turning. Literally. We’re hiring a Maintenance Engineer to support a fast-paced, precision-driven CNC manufacturing environment. This isn’t just about fixing what’s broken — it’s about keeping things running, preventing downtime, and ensuring production never skips a beat. If you know CNC machines inside out and thrive on being the go-to for fault-finding and fix-it-fast solutions, this one’s for you. What you’ll be doing day-to-day Diagnosing faults on CNC machinery (fanuc, Siemens, Heidenhain control systems ideal) Carrying out planned preventative maintenance (PPM) on a variety of turning and milling centres Responding rapidly to breakdowns to keep production on track Replacing mechanical components like spindles, bearings, actuators, etc. Handling minor electrical repairs – sensors, relays, safety circuits Supporting installations and upgrades of production machinery Keeping accurate maintenance logs and tracking parts usage Working with production to schedule maintenance around workloads Liaising with OEMs when required, or escalating deeper technical issues What you’ve likely done before Worked in a CNC machine shop or precision engineering environment Been the "go-to" person for machine downtime Rebuilt a machine bed or swapped a ballscrew in your time Diagnosed a fault using schematics (and maybe your ear) before the diagnostics panel caught up Balanced time between firefighting and scheduled servicing Managed your own spares stock or had strong input into it Played a part in reducing unplanned downtime - and have the stats to show it What we’re looking for Time-served mechanical engineer or maintenance technician Strong CNC fault-finding and repair skills (especially mechanical) Familiarity with Fanuc / Siemens / Heidenhain controls Confident reading mechanical and basic electrical schematics Comfortable working independently and managing priorities Someone who takes pride in keeping machines humming and the lights green What’s in it for you? A stable role in a well-established site The freedom to make an impact (we’re big on ownership) Clean, tidy shopfloor environment with modern machinery Strong engineering support network Day shift hours and a team that pulls together Don’t just fix machines — keep production flowing and quality high. If you’re a mechanical-minded problem solver who knows your way around CNC machines, we’d love to hear from you
