Overview
Nights Maintenance Engineer (Highly competitive salary + shift uplift!)
Location: Petersfield
We are recruiting for 2 Maintenance Engineers to join a prestigious, fast-moving manufacturer in Petersfield. You’ll be working 4 on 4 off, 7pm–7am, nights. This role is roughly 70% mechanical and 30% electrical.
The role involves keeping production lines running smoothly, minimising downtime, and driving efficiency. The team is moving from reactive repairs towards proactive planned preventative maintenance (PPM). Weekday shifts are mainly breakdown response with some PPMs, while the 48 weekend hours on rota focus on PPMs, projects, and deeper fault investigations. Each shift has 3–4 engineers, with four shifts covering the 24/7 operation. These vacancies are specifically for the 12-hour night shifts, created due to retirements and departures.
Responsibilities
* Carry out maintenance tasks on manufacturing equipment to keep production lines running
* Perform mechanical work and electrical tasks (sensors, motors, drives, solenoid controllers, basic PLCs)
* Minimise downtime and drive continuous improvement in maintenance practices
* Support a shift-based team on 24/7 operations, including proactive PPMs and fault investigations
What We’re Looking For
* Maintenance experience in a manufacturing/production setting
* Strong mechanical skills with sound electrical knowledge
* Some PLC troubleshooting exposure
* Confident communicator within engineering teams
* Keen to continuously improve and develop
