What you'll be doing
- Carry out planned, preventative and reactive maintenance across production machinery and plant.
- Diagnose and repair both electrical and mechanical faults, helping minimise production downtime.
- Maintain and repair automated filling, can-seaming and packing equipment.
- Carry out electrical installations in line with current 18th Edition regulations.

- Maintain and fault-find metal detection and other critical production equipment.
- Complete and document routine maintenance schedules using the site's CMMS.
- Respond quickly to breakdowns and reactive work orders to keep production running.
- Work independently as well as alongside the wider Engineering and Production teams.

Ideally, you'll have:
- 18th Edition qualification.
- City & Guilds Level 3 in an electrical or mechanical engineering discipline.
- Strong electrical fault-finding and maintenance experience.
- Experience working with PLCs and automated production machinery.
- Knowledge of AC/DC drives, motors, pumps, hydraulics and pneumatics.
- A strong practical mechanical maintenance skillset alongside your electrical experience.
- Experience within a fast-paced manufacturing or production environment.
- Food manufacturing experience would be advantageous, but broader manufacturing and production backgrounds will also be considered.
- An apprentice-trained background would be beneficial.
- £40,000 - £42,436 salary
- Rotating day and afternoon shifts
- 25 days holiday + Bank Holidays
- A varied, hands-on engineering position
