Ready to play your part?  

At AWE, it's not just a job, it's far more than that. Our shared purpose is to help keep the nation safe. Could these roles be the opportunity for you to play your part?  

Build Your Specialist Engineering Career as we believe great engineers are defined by their skills, attitude and approach, not solely by the industry they come from.

We are looking for Maintenance Engineers to join our highly skilled engineering team. While experience with CNC machine tools would be advantageous, we are equally interested in engineers with strong maintenance, fault-finding and problem-solving skills gained across a broad range of industrial environments.

We value aptitude, attitude and a willingness to learn just as highly as direct machine tool experience and know that valuable engineering experience can be gained across many industries and environments, so if you have a strong maintenance background, excellent problem-solving skills and a genuine desire to learn, we encourage you to apply. We are looking for engineers with the potential to develop into machine tool specialists and are committed to providing the training and support needed to help the right individuals succeed.

What You'll Be Doing:

Maintaining, servicing and repairing machine tools and associated manufacturing equipment
Diagnosing and resolving faults across electrical, mechanical, hydraulic, pneumatic and control systems
Carrying out planned preventative maintenance activities to maximise equipment reliability, availability and performance
Responding to equipment breakdowns and safely restoring operational capability in a timely manner
Supporting machine installations, commissioning activities, modifications and engineering improvement projects
Analysing equipment performance and contributing to reliability, efficiency and continuous improvement initiatives
Collaborating with production, engineering and project teams to deliver operational excellence
Ensuring all activities are completed in accordance with health, safety, quality and environmental requirements 

Who We're Looking For:

Essential

Engineering apprenticeship, NVQ, City & Guilds or equivalent practical engineering experience
Experience in a maintenance engineering role within an industrial, manufacturing, production, facilities, utilities or engineering environment
Strong fault-finding, diagnostic and problem-solving skills
Experience working on electrical, mechanical, hydraulic, pneumatic and/or automated equipment
Ability to interpret technical drawings, manuals and engineering documentation 

Desirable

Experience maintaining CNC machine tools or complex manufacturing equipment
Knowledge of Siemens, Fanuc, Heidenhain or similar control systems
PLC fault-finding and diagnostic experience
Experience working with servo drives, motors and automation systems
Machine installation, commissioning, calibration or precision alignment experience
Knowledge of Asset Management Systems
Understanding of reliability-centred maintenance, condition-based monitoring and continuous improvement methodologies 

Work hard, be rewarded:  

We ask a lot and set the bar high because our work truly matters. In return we offer balance, with award winning benefits including:  

9-day working fortnight - meaning you get every other Friday off work, in addition to 270 hours of annual leave.
Market leading contributory pension scheme (we will pay between 9% and 13% of your pensionable pay depending on your contributions)
Family friendly policies: Maternity Leave - 39 Weeks Full Pay and Paternity Leave - 4 Weeks Full Pay
Opportunities for Professional Career Development including funding for annual membership of a relevant professional body
Employee Assistance Programme and Occupational Health Services
Life Assurance (4 x annual salary)
Discounts - access to savings on a wide range of everyday spending
Special Leave Policy including paid time off for volunteering, public service (including reserve forces) and caring 

You must be willing and able to obtain and maintain the security clearance required for the role

Due to the classified nature of the work involved, there are limited opportunities to work from home in this role. It is anticipated that the successful candidate will spend the majority of their time working on site at AWE.
