Some engineering jobs are all firefighting.

This isn't one of them.

You'll be joining a well-established manufacturing site with a strong engineering team, good support from management and a culture where people are trusted to get on with the job. It's a busy environment, but it's organised, collaborative and genuinely somewhere people enjoy working.

• 26 days holiday plus bank holidays
• Option to buy an additional 5 days leave
• Annual site bonus paid in November
• Annual salary review every April
• Matched pension contributions up to 10%
• Free on-site parking

As a Shift Engineer, you'll be responsible for maintaining production equipment and ensuring the site continues to operate efficiently.

Key responsibilities include:

• Planned preventative maintenance
• Electrical and mechanical fault finding
• Breakdown response and repair
• Supporting continuous improvement projects
• Working closely with production teams to maximise reliability and performance
• Maintaining high standards of safety and engineering practice

You'll work a rotating shift pattern covering Earlies, Afters and Nights.

• Engineering apprenticeship with NVQ, City & Guilds or equivalent qualification
• Electrical or mechanical engineering background
• Experience within manufacturing, FMCG, food, packaging or similar environments
• Strong fault-finding and problem-solving ability
• PLC experience would be advantageous
• A proactive engineer who takes pride in doing things properly

The team is stable, the site is well-run and the atmosphere is refreshingly down-to-earth.

If you're looking for an engineering role where you can make an impact without spending every shift dealing with unnecessary drama, this could be a good fit.
