• Fault-find and repair on PLC-controlled equipment, drives, motors, sensors, and temperature control systems.
• Maintain and calibrate equipment associated with extruders, injection moulding machines, conveyors, and blending systems.
• Diagnose faults using electrical drawings, schematics, and diagnostic tools.
• Support installation and commissioning of new machinery and production lines.
• Ensure all work complies with site safety procedures and electrical regulations (17th/18th Edition).
• Collaborate with mechanical engineers and production teams to drive root cause analysis and continuous improvement initiatives.
About You
• Time-served or qualified Electrical Engineer (NVQ Level 3 / HNC / ONC or equivalent).
• Strong background in industrial or plastics manufacturing maintenance.
• Proven ability to fault-find on PLC systems (Siemens / Allen Bradley preferred).
• Experience with AC/DC drives, servo systems, and control panels.
• Knowledge of thermoforming, extrusion, or injection moulding machinery advantageous.
• Excellent analytical and problem-solving skills with a proactive approach.
• Comfortable working on a 4 on / 4 off shift pattern (days & nights).
What’s on Offer
• Competitive salary: £45,000 – £50,000 DOE.
• 4 on / 4 off rotating shift pattern for a balanced work schedule.
• Overtime and training opportunities.
• Supportive, safety-focused environment with ongoing investment in automation and equipment.
• Genuine career progression within a stable, growing plastics manufacturer.
If you’re an electrically biased engineer with solid experience in plastics processing or heavy automation, this is an excellent opportunity to join a modern, well-equipped facility with real technical variety.
