Job Description

Site Services Engineer | FMCG Manufacturing

Sleaford, Lincolnshire | 4 On / 4 Off | Days & Nights | Permanent

Competitive Salary + Excellent Benefits

Are you a qualified engineer who enjoys working on utilities, infrastructure and varied industrial systems, rather than being tied to one production line?

We're recruiting a Site Services Engineer for a large-scale food manufacturing site in Sleaford. You'll be responsible for maintaining the essential plant and services that keep a high-output factory running safely and efficiently.

This is a genuinely varied engineering role covering boilers, refrigeration, water, effluent, mechanical systems and general site services.

The Role

You'll maintain and improve the infrastructure that supports the entire production operation.

Your responsibilities will include:

Maintenance of steam boilers and associated systems

Industrial refrigeration and cooling systems

Water systems and effluent treatment

Mechanical drives, hydraulics and pneumatics

Pipefitting and general mechanical maintenance

Planned preventative maintenance

Electrical site services

Emergency lighting and portable appliance testing

General site fabric repairs and improvements

Supporting new equipment installation and commissioning

Fault finding and breakdown response

You'll work closely with production and engineering teams to improve reliability, support production start-up and reduce downtime.

You'll also have the opportunity to contribute to continuous improvement, lean initiatives and environmental performance across the site.

What We're Looking For

You'll ideally have:

NVQ Level 3 or equivalent in Engineering

Mechanical or electrical engineering background

Apprentice-trained experience preferred

Experience in site services, utilities, facilities or industrial maintenance

Knowledge of boilers, refrigeration, water or effluent systems

Good understanding of mechanical systems, hydraulics and pneumatics

Strong fault-finding and problem-solving skills

Ability to work independently and prioritise effectively

Experience within a manufacturing or industrial environment

You don't need experience with every system listed above. A strong core engineering background and the ability to learn new systems are what matter most.

What's In It For You?

4 on / 4 off days and nights

Competitive salary and benefits

Permanent position with a major UK food manufacturer

Stable, long-term opportunity

Broad exposure to utilities and industrial engineering

Ongoing training and development

Opportunities to progress into senior engineering or utilities roles

Continued investment in engineering, infrastructure and site capability

The Business

You'll be joining a major UK food manufacturer operating as part of a wider European group, supplying branded and own-label products to major retail and foodservice customers.

The site operates at significant scale and continues to invest in engineering capability, infrastructure and production efficiency.

This is an opportunity to become a key part of the engineering function and work on systems that genuinely keep the factory running.
