Essential Requirements Electrically qualified (City & Guilds / NVQ / HNC or equivalent). Strong electrical bias with excellent fault-finding skills. Experience in FMCG or heavy industrial environments. Experience with industrial electrical panels. Exposure to automation, complex machinery, and fast-paced engineering settings. Desired Skills Siemens experience (including Siemens S7 )-desirable but not essential. Ability to work within highly automated environments. Experience in large production or manufacturing facilities. Benefits Up to 15% total pension (company contributes 10% when you contribute 5%). Strong training and development opportunities. Chance to work at a brand-new, cutting-edge automated site with major production output. Progression opportunities within a large engineering function. Working Environment Dusty industrial environment. Highly automated systems and robotics. Fastest producing site in Europe (target). Large, supportive engineering team (approx. 20 engineers). Interview Process Stage 1: Informal technical discussion with Carl, reviewing your CV and experience. Stage 2: On-site technical assessment with an engineer. Bring overalls & safety shoes.
