We've partnered with an established and highly respected drink manufacturer that continues to invest heavily in innovation, automation and sustainable growth.

As the business continues to grow, they're looking to appoint an experienced Multi-Skilled Engineer to join their night engineering team.

If you enjoy solving problems, improving equipment performance and working within a fast-paced manufacturing environment where engineering is genuinely valued, we'd love to hear from you.

The Opportunity

Working across a modern manufacturing facility, you'll take ownership of engineering activities throughout the night shift, ensuring production equipment and site services operate safely, efficiently and reliably.

This is much more than a reactive maintenance role. You'll help improve equipment reliability, support continuous improvement projects and contribute towards the installation and optimisation of new manufacturing equipment.

• Diagnose and repair electrical and mechanical faults to minimise downtime.
• Respond quickly to production breakdowns and restore equipment safely.
• Identify recurring issues and implement long-term engineering solutions.
• Support continuous improvement initiatives to improve reliability and OEE.
• Assist with machinery installations, commissioning and engineering projects.
• Work closely with Production and Operations teams to maximise manufacturing performance.
• Maintain accurate maintenance records using the CMMS system.
• Ensure all engineering work complies with Health & Safety, food safety and statutory requirements.

About You

We're looking for an experienced Multi-Skilled Engineer with a background in food, drink or FMCG manufacturing.

You'll have:

• Strong electrical and mechanical fault-finding experience.
• Experience carrying out both planned and reactive maintenance.
• Knowledge of automated production machinery.
• A proactive approach to continuous improvement.
• The confidence to prioritise engineering activities during night shifts.
• An engineering qualification such as NVQ Level 3, HNC or equivalent.
• Previous food or beverage manufacturing experience is highly desirable.

What's On Offer

• £45,000 - £55,000 annual salary.
• Permanent 4 on 4 off night shift pattern.
• Join a business investing heavily in innovation and future growth.
• Modern manufacturing facility with continued investment in equipment and technology.
• Genuine opportunities for career progression and development.
• Supportive engineering leadership team that values new ideas and continuous improvement.
• Be part of one of the UK's most exciting and innovative drinks manufacturing businesses.

If you're looking for your next engineering challenge within a forward-thinking manufacturing business where your technical expertise can make a real impact, we'd love to hear from you.
