This is an exciting opportunity for a multi-skilled engineer to take on a varied and hands-on role, supporting both planned and reactive maintenance across a busy production facility. You’ll play a key role in ensuring minimal downtime, improved reliability, and a safe working environment.

Key Responsibilities:

• Carry out daily, weekly, and monthly preventative maintenance routines across production and ancillary equipment.
• Respond rapidly to breakdowns and faults, ensuring efficient diagnosis and repair to minimise disruption.

• Work with hydraulic and pneumatic systems – experience in these areas is highly desirable.
• Liaise with and oversee the work of external contractors where required.
• Manage the ordering and inventory of consumables, spare parts, and maintenance tools.
• Undertake general building and site maintenance tasks as needed.
• Maintain accurate records of maintenance activities and support ongoing continuous improvement efforts.

What We’re Looking For:

• Previous experience as a Maintenance Engineer within an industrial, engineering, or manufacturing setting.
• Strong diagnostic skills in both electrical and mechanical fault finding.
• Working knowledge of PLC systems (basic fault-finding required; programming knowledge an advantage).
• Familiarity with hydraulic and pneumatic systems.
• Relevant qualifications such as NVQ Level 3, HNC, or equivalent in Mechanical or Electrical Engineering.
• 18th Edition Wiring Regulations (preferred but not essential).
• A proactive approach with a strong focus on Health & Safety and efficient work practices.

What’s On Offer:
