🚀 The Opportunity
This isn’t your typical maintenance role.
You’ll be working in a practical, hands-on environment maintaining and repairing a wide range of machinery and equipment. The site operates a mix of older and modern equipment, so the role requires a strong mechanical mindset rather than just swapping parts.
If you enjoy getting stuck into machinery, diagnosing faults, stripping down components, and carrying out proper repairs — this role will give you that.
🔧 What You’ll Be Doing
Maintaining and repairing a variety of mechanical equipment
Fault finding on gearboxes, bearings, shafts, belts, and drive systems
Working on rollers, rotating equipment, and material handling systems
Carrying out component repairs and rebuilds
Supporting hydraulic and pneumatic systems
Completing PPMs and responding to breakdowns
Supporting improvement work across the site🌟 What We’re Looking For
A hands-on engineer who enjoys practical mechanical work
Someone comfortable working on a variety of machinery (not just automated lines)
Strong fault-finding and problem-solving ability
A reliable team player who can also work independently
Apprentice trained or time-served (preferred)💥 Why This Role Stands Out
✔️ No shifts – strong work-life balance
✔️ Early Friday finish
✔️ Proper hands-on engineering (strip, repair, rebuild)
✔️ Variety of machinery — no two days the same
✔️ Stable, long-term opportunity
