Key responsibilities include:

  • Carrying out planned preventative maintenance and responding to breakdowns

  • Diagnosing electrical and mechanical faults in a fast-paced manufacturing environment

  • Supporting continuous improvement initiatives to enhance equipment performance

  • Ensuring all work is completed in line with health, safety, and food safety standards

  • Contributing to a proactive engineering culture on site

About You

You’ll be an experienced Multi-Skilled Engineer with a background in food, drink, or FMCG manufacturing. You’ll bring a strong mix of electrical and mechanical expertise, along with a practical, solutions-focused mindset.

We’re particularly keen to speak with individuals who:

  • Thrive in a fast-paced production environment

  • Take ownership and pride in their work

  • Are confident working both independently and as part of a team

  • Have a continuous improvement mindset

 

This role offers the chance to join a stable, forward-thinking manufacturing site with a strong engineering culture, clear structure, and a competitive package that recognises your contribution.

If you’re ready for your next step and want to be part of a business where engineering truly matters, we’d love to hear from you.
