  • Respond to breakdowns and carry out effective fault diagnosis and repair
  • Deliver planned preventative maintenance (PPM) and TPM activities
  • Maintain and repair equipment including PLCs, inverter drives, conveyors, packaging machinery, and control systems
  • Support building services including HVAC, refrigeration, fire systems, and BMS
  • Carry out mechanical and electrical maintenance across site
  • Maintain accurate maintenance records
  • Support H&S compliance and continuous improvement initiatives

Requirements

  • Multi-skilled engineer with strong electrical and mechanical fault-finding ability
  • Experience in fast-paced manufacturing (food or automotive preferred)
  • Competent with 3-phase systems, PLCs, HMI, and control circuits
  • Ability to read electrical, mechanical, hydraulic, and pneumatic drawings
  • Experience with motors, gearboxes, fabrication, and welding
  • 17th/18th Edition Wiring Regulations (essential)
  • HNC or equivalent engineering qualification

Please note we will require a copy of your UK rights to work to be forwarded for this position thank you.

Due to the unprecedented volume of response, we are currently receiving, regrettably we are no longer able to respond to every application individually. If you have not heard back from us within 48 hours, please assume your application for this role has been unsuccessful. We do read each CV carefully and if the situation changes or another potentially suitable role becomes active, we will be back in contact.
