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
