Yolk Recruitment are supporting a well established FMCG manufacturer in South Wales with the recruitment of Contract Mechanical Shift Engineers to support their maintenance team on site. These roles are available immediately.

You'll join an experienced engineering team on a busy, well invested manufacturing site. The role will involve a mix of planned preventative maintenance, reactive breakdown support and some project work, working on a range of high speed production and packaging equipment.
