Job Description

Multiskilled Maintenance Engineer

Hourly Rate: £18 - £25 per hour DOE

Location Long Buckby
Hours: Monday–Friday, 8:00am–6:00pm
Job Type: Permanent

Are you a hands-on Maintenance Engineer who enjoys fixing things rather than filling in forms?

We are looking for a practical, hands-on Multiskilled Maintenance Engineer to join an established business operating within the agriculture production sector.

This is a varied role that would suit someone who enjoys working with machinery, solving problems, and getting stuck in. You could be working on a breakdown one minute, fabricating a component in the workshop the next, before heading into production to install new equipment.

We are particularly interested in engineers who can work independently, use their initiative and aren't afraid to pick up a spanner and work out how to solve a problem.

The Role

The position will involve a mixture of maintenance, breakdown response, fabrication and new machinery installation, working approximately:

30% – New machinery installation

30% – Breakdown maintenance and fault finding

30% – Fabrication and welding

10% – Planned/preventative maintenance

You will spend roughly 50% of your time in the workshop and 50% within production

Workshop activities will include using equipment such as:

Drills

Lathes

Guillotines

Welding equipment

General workshop machinery

You will then use the components and equipment prepared in the workshop when carrying out installation and maintenance work within the production environment.

What we're looking for

We are looking for someone with a genuine hands-on engineering background, ideally with experience in a manufacturing, agricultural, food production or similar environment.

Experience with equipment such as the following would be particularly useful:

  * Conveyors

  * Elevators

  * Augers

  * Mechanical handling equipment

  * Production machinery

  * General industrial plant

You should be comfortable with:

  * Mechanical fault finding and repair

  * Installing and commissioning machinery

  * Preventative maintenance

  * Fabrication and modification work

  * MIG welding

  * Using general workshop machinery

  * Working safely around production equipment

  * Working independently and as part of a small team

  * MIG welding experience is important. TIG or other welding experience would be a bonus but is not essential.

The person

We're not looking for someone who simply wants to turn up, complete a maintenance checklist and wait for the next job.

We're looking for a practical problem solver who enjoys variety and takes pride in getting machinery back up and running.

You will ideally be someone who:

  * Is mechanically minded and technically capable

  * Can diagnose problems and find practical solutions

  * Is confident working without constant supervision

  * Has a "can-do" attitude

  * Isn't afraid to get their hands dirty

  * Can fabricate, modify and repair equipment

  * Works well as part of a small team

  * Takes pride in doing a good job

  * Is adaptable and willing to tackle different challenges

Before You Apply

Do not include the following in your job application, CV, or cover letter:

Bank details.
National Insurance number.
Date of birth.

You should not be asked for payment or irrelevant information. If you have concerns about a job advert or employer, seek guidance on how to proceed.
