Are you an experienced Engineering Manager with a strong electrical background looking for a role where you can stay hands‑on while leading a team? This is a brilliant opportunity to join a forward-thinking manufacturing business in Chesterfield, offering a genuine 50/50 split between hands‑on engineering and people management.
The Role
As Engineering Manager, you'll take ownership of the day‑to‑day engineering function within a close‑knit, collaborative team. You'll be equally comfortable picking up the tools as you are leading and developing your engineers - this isn't a desk‑only role, and the business values a manager who leads from the front.
* Managing and mentoring a small engineering team
* Hands‑on fault‑finding, maintenance, and improvement work across electrical systems
* Driving PPM schedules and reactive maintenance activities
* Identifying and delivering continuous improvement projects
* Working closely with operations and production to minimise downtime
* Supporting the development and upskilling of your team
What We're Looking For
* Strong electrical bias with a recognised qualification (City & Guilds, HNC/HND, or equivalent)
* Proven background in a manufacturing or industrial engineering environment
* Previous supervisory or management experience - or a senior engineer ready to step up
* Comfortable in a hands‑on, fast‑paced environment
* A natural leader with strong communication skills
The Package
* Small, stable team with a supportive culture
* Real autonomy and influence over the engineering function
