• Ensuring all work is completed safely and in line with site standards

The role offers a true multi-skilled split, typically around 50/50 or 60/40 electrical/mechanical, depending on your background.

We're keen to speak with apprentice-trained engineers from a variety of manufacturing backgrounds including:

• Automotive
• FMCG
• Food & Beverage
• Packaging
• Heavy Engineering
