Job Description

Maintenance Engineer | 4 On / 4 Off

Middlesbrough Area | Food Manufacturing | Days & Nights

Competitive Salary + Benefits

Are you a Maintenance Engineer looking for a genuine 4-on/4-off shift pattern within a large-scale food manufacturing environment?

We're recruiting for one of the UK's leading party food production sites, manufacturing products including bhajis, samosas, onion rings and spring rolls for major UK supermarkets.

The site operates at scale and pace, with a strong engineering team supporting a busy production operation.

This is a hands-on maintenance role covering both mechanical and electrical systems, with a clear focus on fixing faults properly, improving reliability and keeping production moving.

The Shift

4 On / 4 Off | Rotating Days & Nights

A structured shift pattern giving you substantial time away from work between rotations.

What You'll Be Doing

You'll be responsible for maintaining production equipment and responding to faults across the site.

Your responsibilities will include:

Mechanical and electrical breakdown response

Structured fault finding and diagnostics

Planned preventative maintenance

Carrying out repairs safely and efficiently

Recording maintenance activity and corrective actions on the CMMS

Supporting reliability and continuous improvement projects

Identifying and addressing repeat failures

Working closely with production to minimise downtime

Supporting site teams to maintain safe and efficient operation

The focus isn't simply on getting a machine running again. You'll be encouraged to understand why it failed and what can be done to stop it happening again.

What We're Looking For

You'll ideally have:

Experience in a Multi-Skilled Maintenance Engineer or similar role

Recognised engineering qualification in mechanical and/or electrical engineering

Strong mechanical and electrical fault-finding skills

Experience with planned and reactive maintenance

Ability to diagnose faults and work independently

Good problem-solving and communication skills

Ability to work effectively as part of an engineering team

Willingness to work a 4 on / 4 off days and nights rotation

Experience within food manufacturing or FMCG would be useful but isn't essential.

Due to the location and shift times, your own transport would be advantageous.

What's On Offer?

4 on / 4 off shift pattern

Rotating days and nights

Competitive salary

Benefits package including retail discounts

Wellbeing support

Employee assistance programme

Volunteering opportunities

Ongoing training and development

Long-term career opportunities within a growing UK food manufacturing group

Why Join?

You'll be joining a business that is continuing to invest in its manufacturing sites, engineering standards and people.

As the wider group grows, there is genuine opportunity for engineers who want to develop their skills, take on more responsibility and progress their careers.

You'll also be part of an established engineering team where technical competence, teamwork and solving problems properly are valued.
