Late Shift Engineer

Most maintenance jobs promise "a great opportunity." Then you arrive to find outdated machinery, endless breakdowns and weekends spent covering shifts.

This isn't one of those - this is a lesser known food manufacture.

We're recruiting for a Multi-Skilled Night Maintenance Engineer to join a successful food manufacturing business investing in its people, equipment and continuous improvement. Working a fixed Monday to Friday late shift (16:00-02:00), you'll enjoy a consistent routine with your weekends free while supporting a modern, automated production facility.

• £58,000 salary
• Permanent Monday to Friday late shift (16:00-02:00)
• Weekends free.
• Stable, growing manufacturer with ongoing investment.
• Modern automated production and packaging machinery.
• A varied role combining breakdown response, PPM and improvement projects.
• Supportive Engineering Manager who values proactive maintenance.
• Opportunities to develop your electrical, mechanical and PLC skills.

You'll be responsible for ensuring production runs efficiently by:

• Responding quickly to electrical and mechanical breakdowns.
• Completing planned preventative maintenance (PPM).
• Fault-finding across conveyors, automated production and packaging equipment.
• Supporting continuous improvement initiatives and engineering projects.
• Maintaining the highest standards of health and safety, including Lock Out/Tag Out procedures.

• NVQ Level 3 (or equivalent) in Engineering.
• Recognised Engineering Apprenticeship.
• Strong electrical and mechanical fault-finding skills.
• Manufacturing, FMCG or food production experience.
• Ability to read electrical schematics.
• Welding experience (MIG/TIG/ARC) is advantageous.
• PLC fault-finding experience would be beneficial but isn't essential.

If you're looking for a well-paid engineering role with a consistent shift pattern, modern equipment and a business that genuinely values its maintenance team, we'd love to hear from you.
