* Carry out planned and reactive maintenance, inspections and calibrations.
* Record production and maintenance data accurately using control systems.
* Support engineering teams with fault diagnosis, plant modifications and commissioning.
* Manage incoming materials, consumables and waste safely and efficiently.
* Take part in safety assessments, hazard reviews and continuous improvement initiatives.
* Train and mentor other technicians/operators and act as a shift lead when required.
What We’re Looking For
* Strong track record in a manufacturing, process, or industrial environment.
* Good understanding of plant safety, quality and environmental compliance.
* Hands-on experience with process equipment, SCADA, DCS, QCS or other process control systems, and safe systems of work (permits to work, isolations, lockout/tagout).
* Flexibility to start on days and move to shifts, including nights and weekends.
* Comfortable leading by example, keeping records, and driving improvements.
* Willingness to undertake training for specialist equipment
* Qualifications or experience in Electrical, Instrumentation/Controls, Mechanical or Process Engineering disciplines Is advantageous.
* Experience working with hazardous, high-pressure or flammable materials is also highly beneficial.
* Familiarity with Lean, Six Sigma or other continuous improvement tools.
