Job Description
What's in it for you?
Looking for a role where you're not just reacting to breakdowns but actively making things better - and getting paid properly for it?
This is your opportunity to join a well-run site that values its engineers, gives you time to do things right, and trusts you to make an impact. With a proper shift pattern and a strong hourly rate, this is a role designed to reward both your skill and your effort.
£23.04 per hour
Continental shift pattern - 4 on, 4 off (6am-6pm / 6pm-6am rotating)
Time, support and tools to improve plant performance - not just firefight
A well-structured site with strong health & safety and engineering standards
Investment in training, systems, and CMMS (Shire)
Additional benefits: pension, paid holidays, sick pay scheme, and more
What you'll be doing
You'll join a cross-functional engineering team supporting high-speed production lines in a 24/7 environment. It's a hands-on, multi-skilled maintenance role where you'll be trusted to diagnose, repair, and improve - and work closely with operations to drive efficiency.
This includes:
Responding to breakdowns and completing planned preventative maintenance
Supporting continuous improvement and reliability projects
Monitoring line performance and identifying root causes of issues
Working on electrical, mechanical, and process systems
Maintaining records via CMMS (Shire) and supporting with compliance and safety
What we're looking for
You're a qualified engineer (electrical or mechanical) who's worked in a fast-paced manufacturing environment. You know how to fault-find, fix, and suggest improvements - and you take pride in working safely, accurately, and with minimal supervision.
Required:
NVQ Level 3, ONC or BTEC in Mechanical or Electrical Engineering
Previous experience in a multi-skilled engineering or maintenance role
Practical understanding of safety systems and production processes
Ability to use Microsoft Office and mobile reporting systems
Strong communication, ownership and fault-finding skills
Desirable:
18th Edition Wiring Regulations
Experience with boilers, compressed air, or HVAC systems
Familiarity with CMMS systems (Shire ideal but not essential)
