Job Description

Reliability Engineer

Monday – Friday | Days

Fancy moving away from simply fixing breakdowns and getting more involved in why they're happening in the first place?

We're working with a highly reputable and well-established FMCG manufacturer who are looking for an experienced Reliability Engineer to join their engineering team.

This is a great opportunity for someone who enjoys looking at the bigger picture, improving equipment performance and making sure those same breakdowns don't keep coming back.

The Role

  • Analyse equipment failures and identify root causes

  • Develop and improve preventative and predictive maintenance strategies

  • Use engineering data to identify trends, recurring faults and opportunities for improvement

  • Drive reliability and continuous improvement projects across site

  • Work closely with Maintenance and Production teams

  • Improve asset availability, performance and overall equipment reliability

  • Support the development of PPM and condition-based maintenance programmes

  • Help reduce downtime, maintenance costs and repeat failures

What We're Looking For

  • Previous experience in a Reliability, Maintenance or Continuous Improvement Engineering role

  • Strong understanding of engineering maintenance principles

  • Experience analysing equipment failures and carrying out RCA

  • Ideally experience within FMCG, food or another high-volume manufacturing environment

  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills

  • Someone who enjoys getting into the detail and finding the actual cause of a problem, rather than simply putting a plaster over it

What's On Offer?

Monday – Friday, days
Excellent salary
Strong benefits package
Highly reputable FMCG business
Long-term career opportunity
Genuine scope to make an impact

If you're a Maintenance Engineer ready to take a step into a more reliability-focused role, or you're already working in Reliability and fancy a new challenge, I'd be keen to have a chat.

Drop me a message for a confidential conversation and I'll tell you more.
