These positions offer a varied workload across mechanical and electrical maintenance, combining planned servicing, reactive fault-finding and improvement projects. You will work on a broad range of production machinery rather than being limited to one particular process or type of equipment.

Job Description

Working as part of the site maintenance team, your responsibilities will include:

Completing planned preventative maintenance to agreed schedules

Responding to equipment breakdowns and restoring machinery with minimal disruption to production

Diagnosing mechanical and electrical faults and carrying out effective repairs

Maintaining equipment such as CNC machinery, conveyors and automated production systems

Supporting the maintenance and fault-finding of PLC-controlled equipment and robotics

Identifying recurring faults and recommending longer-term improvements

Contributing to engineering projects and machinery upgrades

Helping to improve equipment reliability, efficiency and overall performance

Recording completed maintenance work and providing clear handovers

Ensuring all work is completed safely and in line with site procedures

Providing practical engineering support to production colleagues when required

Person Specification

We are looking for an engineer who can demonstrate:

Previous maintenance engineering experience within a manufacturing, production or industrial environment

A recognised mechanical, electrical or multi-skilled engineering apprenticeship

Strong mechanical and electrical fault-finding ability

Practical experience of hydraulics and pneumatics

The ability to diagnose problems independently and work effectively under pressure

A proactive and methodical approach to repairs and maintenance

Good awareness of engineering health and safety requirements

The flexibility to support both planned work and urgent breakdown activity

Experience of maintaining CNC machinery would be particularly relevant.

Knowledge of PLCs, automation systems, robotics, motors, drives, clutches or shaft alignment would also be beneficial. An HNC, HND or equivalent engineering qualification would be advantageous but is not essential.

Why Apply?

This is an opportunity to join a stable manufacturing operation offering strong earning potential and a varied engineering workload.

The package includes:

£50,000 basic salary

Additional shift allowance

Regular overtime opportunities

Potential earnings of approximately £67,500
