* Minimum 5 years' experience in a production support or manufacturing environment.
* Excellent fault-finding and diagnostic skills (electrical/electronic).
* Level 3 qualification (City & Guilds, BTEC ONC, or equivalent) in Electrical, Electronic, or related Engineering field.
* Sound understanding of PLCs, control systems, variable frequency drives, 3-phase motors, and basic instrumentation.
* Strong communication skills and the ability to engage with both internal and external stakeholders.
Desirable Skills & Qualifications:
* 10 years' experience in a fast-paced manufacturing environment.
* Level 4/5 qualifications (HNC/HND/Degree) in Electrical, Electronic or Mechatronics Engineering.
* Advanced knowledge of automation, servo drives, and vibration feed systems.
* Experience designing/modifying control panels and electrical safety systems.
* Familiarity with electrical CAD software (AutoCAD, EPlan, Edraw etc.)
Why Apply?
* Competitive salary depending on experience.
* On-the-job training and career development opportunities.
* Be part of a forward-thinking engineering team that values innovation and continuous improvement.
