  * A business that truly values inclusion, diversity & career development
  * Play a key role during an exciting phase of investment and growth

  * Developing business cases and project justifications
  * Managing contractors, installations, and on-site coordination
  * Driving health & safety compliance across all project phases
  * Owning budgets, timelines, and stakeholder communication
  * Ensuring smooth, safe integration into live production
What We’re Looking For
  * Proven experience delivering CAPEX projects (ideally within FMCG or manufacturing)
  * Engineering background – mechanical, electrical, civil or multi-skilled
    (degree or apprenticeship)
  * Strong knowledge of Health & Safety regulations (e.g. PUWER, CDM)
  * A confident communicator with natural leadership ability
  * Commercial awareness with strong cost control and project delivery skills
This is more than just a job — it’s an opportunity to shape the future of a modern manufacturing site, working with cutting-edge technology and making a tangible impact from day one.
