Job Description

Maintenance Manager

A chance to build on what's already working — and take maintenance to the next level.

I'm working with a well-established food manufacturer that's going through a period of major investment and looking to strengthen its engineering function.

Reporting to the Engineering Manager, this is a maintenance-focused leadership role with a big emphasis on people, reliability and continuous improvement.

You'll take ownership of the maintenance team, developing your engineers while continuing to improve planned maintenance, equipment reliability and OEE. The foundations are there — this is about raising the bar even further.

What you'll be doing

Leading, developing and motivating the maintenance team
Coaching engineers and creating clear development plans
Building a strong culture of ownership, accountability and continuous improvement
Developing planned and preventative maintenance strategies
Improving equipment reliability and OEE
Using maintenance and downtime data to identify opportunities for improvement
Reducing repeat failures and improving maintenance effectiveness
Working closely with Production to improve equipment performance
Supporting the site's significant investment programme
Improving maintenance standards, systems and processes

What you'll bring

We're looking for someone who combines strong technical maintenance knowledge with genuine people leadership.

You'll need:

Previous maintenance leadership/management experience
Food manufacturing experience
A strong understanding of planned and preventative maintenance
Experience improving reliability, OEE and equipment performance
The ability to lead, coach and develop an engineering team
A proactive, improvement-focused mindset

Why this role?

This is about opportunity, not firefighting.

The business is established, secure and investing heavily — so you'll have the resources and backing to make meaningful improvements.

You'll have the chance to put your own stamp on the maintenance function, develop a team and play a key role in improving reliability and performance across the site.

If you're a people-focused maintenance leader who enjoys making things better, developing engineers and seeing the results of your work on the shop floor, this could be a very good next move
