Job Description
Maintenance Supervisor
📍 Mid-Wales
💰 £44,000 to £48,000 per annum
What You'll Do:
You'll take a hands-on leadership role within a manufacturing and contract packing site, overseeing day-to-day maintenance activities while remaining technically involved on the tools. This is a days-based position supporting a varied production environment handling bulk materials and products.
You'll coordinate and support a small maintenance team, prioritising breakdowns, planning maintenance activity and acting as the technical escalation point for electrical and control issues. Alongside leadership responsibilities, you'll remain actively involved in fault finding and improvement work across conveyors, bucket elevators, robotics, heat sealers, bag weighers, and mixing equipment.
A key part of the role will be supporting and developing PLC capability on site, fault finding through HMIs and ladder logic, and working with external suppliers on robotics and control upgrades. You'll also contribute to future maintenance structure, process improvements and site reliability as the department evolves.
What You'll Bring:
Apprenticeship trained or NVQ Level 3 qualified in Electrical Engineering or a related discipline
Strong background in manufacturing or industrial maintenance environments
Proven electrical fault-finding ability on panels, motors, drives, and control systems
PLC experience, ideally Siemens or Mitsubishi, with confidence fault finding via ladder logic
Previous experience leading, mentoring or informally supervising engineers
A practical, multi-skilled approach with willingness to support mechanical maintenance when required
Experience in food, feed, packaging, or dusty manufacturing environments would be beneficial
18th Edition qualification is desirable but not essential
Why You Should Apply:
This role offers genuine progression and influence within a stable, long-standing business with decades of heritage. You'll work a consistent days pattern alongside production, with minimal overtime and no routine weekend work.
The position suits an experienced engineer ready to step into leadership or an existing supervisor looking for a stable days-based role with autonomy. You'll have the opportunity to shape the maintenance function, support future hires and play a key role in the site's long-term reliability and performance.
