You will be part of the broader packaging team, focused on keeping our bottling, canning and other lines running smoothly and efficiently. Your role includes ensuring machinery is reliable, well-maintained and safe, while also anticipating future needs and driving fresh, innovative improvements to increase the site’s overall output.
Who we’re looking for
We’re seeking a true team player; an individual that also seeks out successes and wins for all! Success in this role would include a reduction in unplanned losses (breakdowns, short stops, speed loss) as well as being to deliver cost effective maintenance strategies & implementing industry best practices.
As well as the above, the ideal candidate will have:
Strong experience with high-speed process/packaging machinery, ideally in FMCG.
In-depth knowledge of modern maintenance techniques (FMECA, RCM).
Proven problem-solving skills using LEAN, TPM, or Continuous Improvement methodologies.
Ability to drive change, implement improvements, and work collaboratively across teams.
