THE OPPORTUNITY

Are you an experienced Maintenance Engineer looking for a Monday to Friday days role with a global business that genuinely invests in its people?

We are working with a highly respected global manufacturing organisation with a superb reputation within its industry. This is a business that has a genuine long-term approach to its employees, with many people having built significant careers within the company.

The organisation invests heavily in training, development and career progression. As a Maintenance Engineer, you will have access to additional technical training, including further electrical courses, PLC training and welding qualifications.

There are also clear opportunities to develop your career beyond the traditional Maintenance Engineer position, with potential progression into engineering leadership, reliability engineering or controls-focused roles.

This is an excellent opportunity for a Maintenance Engineer who wants to join a stable, successful business where people are valued, developed and encouraged to progress.

THE ROLE

As a Maintenance Engineer, you will be part of a multi-skilled engineering team responsible for maintaining and improving a demanding industrial production environment.

• Contributing to continuous improvement projects
• Working to engineering KPIs and site standards
• Supporting improvements to equipment reliability and performance
• Working closely with Production and other engineering disciplines

Relevant backgrounds could include:

• Water treatment i.e. Thames Water, Anglian Water, Essex & Suffolk Water, SSE Water
• Aggregate manufacturing

• Quarrying
• Mining
• Tarmac and asphalt manufacturing
• Waste-to-energy

• Electrical or mechanical bias with the ability to work across disciplines
• Experience maintaining large-scale industrial machinery and equipment
• Strong electrical and/or mechanical fault-finding skills
• Good diagnostic and problem-solving ability
• A proactive approach to maintenance and continuous improvement
• Good communication and teamwork skills
• A willingness to learn and develop technically
• An interest in automation, controls, reliability or engineering improvement
• The ambition to develop your career within a long-term organisation

The company genuinely invests in its employees, with extensive training and development available to help people build their technical skills and progress their careers.

The long service across the business is a real reflection of the culture. Many employees have been with the organisation for many years, with people able to build long-term careers rather than constantly looking for their next move.
