Job Description
Multi-Skilled Maintenance Engineer (Days Only)
£39,000 – £46,000 | 4 On / 4 Off | Clacton-on-Sea
Are you a Multi-Skilled Maintenance Engineer looking for an outstanding work–life balance without compromising on salary or technical challenge?
This is a fantastic opportunity to join a well-established, asset-heavy industrial site offering a days-only 4 on / 4 off shift pattern — meaning no nights and half the year off. The site continues to invest in plant, equipment, and engineering standards, making this a strong long-term career move.
The Company
* Financially secure, long-established industrial operation
* High-usage, mechanically and electrically demanding environment
* Ongoing investment in machinery, automation, and infrastructure
* Strong safety culture with clear engineering standards
* Known for retaining engineers long-term
?? The Role
As a Multi-Skilled Maintenance Engineer, you will play a key role in maintaining uptime and reliability within a busy operational environment.
Key responsibilities include:
* Electrical and mechanical fault finding on industrial machinery
* Planned Preventive Maintenance (PPM) to maximise reliability
* Reactive breakdown response to minimise downtime
* Supporting continuous improvement and reliability projects
* Working closely with operations and fellow engineers
* Ensuring all work is completed to health & safety and engineering best practice
Shift Pattern (Major Selling Point)
* 4 on / 4 off
* Days only – no nights
* Excellent work–life balance
* Predictable, structured rota
Salary & Benefits
* £39,000 – £46,000 basic salary (depending on experience)
* Overtime available
* Company pension scheme
* Training and development support
* Long-term job security within a stable, well-invested site
What We're Looking For
* Proven experience as a Multi-Skilled Maintenance Engineer
* Strong electrical and mechanical fault-finding skills
* Background in industrial, manufacturing, FMCG, or process-driven environments
* Relevant engineering qualification (NVQ Level 2/3, apprenticeship, or equivalent)
* Proactive, reliable, and team-focused approach
? Why This Role Stands Out
* Days only + 4 on / 4 off = exceptional work–life balance
* Competitive salary for a non-nights role
* Technically varied, hands-on engineering work
* Well-supported engineering team with proper resources
* Stable employer that values and invests in engineers
