Why This Role Stands Out

This isnt just another maintenance role.

Youll be stepping into a senior, hands-on engineering position where youll lead from the front, influence decisions, and drive real change across a busy manufacturing site.

• Leading and developing a small engineering team (2 engineers)
• Getting stuck into hands-on electrical & mechanical fault finding
• Working with Siemens PLCs (fault finding + programming) and some Mitsubishi
• Driving continuous improvement projects not just firefighting
• Working closely with production to keep the site running efficiently
• Embedding high standards through 5S and best practice engineering

What We Want - Senior Engineer

• A strong multi-skilled engineer (electrical bias) who can lead from the front
• Solid background in food, FMCG, or fast-paced manufacturing
• Confident with Siemens PLCs (non-negotiable)
• Someone who has mentored, led, or stepped up in previous roles
• A proactive mindset fix problems properly, not temporarily
• Comfortable working independently but also driving team performance

What Youll Get - Senior Engineer

• Up to £55,000 salary
• Company pension
• Staff discount scheme
• Free on-site parking
• MondayFriday days no shifts, no weekends
• A genuine opportunity to step up and make an impact

Bottom Line - Senior Engineer

If youre a senior engineer ready to take ownership, lead a team, and improve a site, this is a standout opportunity in the Eccles area.
