Job Description

Senior Engineer
Swansea 

Circa £45,000 + overtime + benefits

Yolk Recruitment is supporting a leading industrial business as they launch a brand new site in Swansea. This is a rare opportunity to join from day one, help commission the plant, and set the standard for reliability and performance going forward.

If you're a hands-on, multi-skilled engineer who enjoys fault‑finding on heavy kit and keeping a busy site running smoothly, this role will be right up your street.

The Role

As a seasoned Electrical / Mechanical Engineer, you'll become one of the go‑to people on site for keeping production moving.

Day-to-day, you will:

Support the commissioning and ramp‑up of a brand-new facility and its equipment
Carry out planned preventive maintenance (PPM) and respond to breakdowns
Fault‑find across motors, drives, control circuits and PLC controlled systems (Siemens / Allen Bradley is a bonus)
Work on hydraulics, pneumatics, bearings, gearboxes and conveyors
Apply strict isolation / LOTO and permit‑to‑work procedures
Log all work in digital maintenance systems (CMMS)
Feed into root cause analysis (RCA) and continuous improvement to increase uptime
What We're Looking For

We're keen to speak to engineers who have experience in heavy industrial environments or FMCG manufacturing sites who are keen and motivated to develop with a growing business. 

You'll need: 

Multi‑skilled electrical and mechanical maintenance experience
Level 3 qualification in Electrical / Mechanical / Maintenance Engineering, or time‑served equivalent
Strong fault‑finding skills across both electrical and mechanical systems
A solid track record of working safely with PUWER, LOTO and permit‑to‑work
Confidence working under pressure and prioritising when the plant is running hard 

Why This Role?

This isn't stepping into someone else's shoes - it's helping to build something from the ground up and offer you the chance to develop a team around you.

In return you will have:

Real influence over standards, processes and reliability
A salary of circa £45,000 plus overtime and callout
Day-shift role with long‑term, stable work
Ongoing training on specialist systems and clear routes to senior / lead roles
