Ballantine Recruitment is supporting a growing manufacturing business in Liverpool with the appointment of an experienced Multi-Skilled Shift Engineer.

This is a genuine hands-on engineering position within a fast-paced production environment. Youโ€™ll be responsible for keeping equipment running, responding quickly to breakdowns and making sure planned maintenance is completed properly โ€” while also getting involved in continuous improvement and engineering projects.

The site operates a varied mix of automated production and packaging equipment, so this isnโ€™t a role where youโ€™ll be working on the same piece of kit every day.

โ€ข Strong electrical fault-finding capability
โ€ข Sound mechanical engineering knowledge
โ€ข Previous FMCG / manufacturing experience
โ€ข Experience with conveyors and automated packaging equipment
โ€ข Experience with bottling / canning environments would be highly relevant
โ€ข PLC knowledge โ€“ Siemens / TIA Portal preferred
