World Leader in Blood Glucose Monitoring, Abbott Diabetes Care designs, develops and manufactures glucose monitoring systems for use in both home and hospital settings. Our manufacturing Centre of Excellence in Witney produces products under the Freestyle brand that must meet stringent Worldwide quality standards and regulations.
As a result of strong business growth, industry-leading product development in the biosensor business and a long-term commitment to high volume manufacturing in Witney, we have opportunities for multi-skilled Support Engineers to join our Operations Group, supporting manufacturing operations across our business through performing Preventive Maintenance activities, responding effectively to breakdowns, monitoring equipment performance and providing valuable input to help maintain process yields and efficiencies. Our Support Engineers also provide assistance to the Projects Team in implementing changes to equipment. Working at Abbott, you can help shape the future of healthcare whilst shaping your career.
Working in a clean room or controlled environment, you will provide technical expertise to fault find, maintain and continually improve bespoke automated equipment and processes. This position is working a night shift pattern of 4 on 4 off.
