The Role

We are a leading packaging manufacturer in the Ipswich area, looking for a highly skilled and motivated Multi-Skilled Maintenance Technician with a strong Electrical and PLC bias.

You'll be instrumental in ensuring the efficiency and reliability of our automated packaging machinery and plant equipment. This role offers the opportunity to use your electrical expertise and PLC fault-finding skills daily, splitting your time between rapid reactive maintenance to minimise downtime and essential planned preventative maintenance (PPM) to drive long-term improvements.

️ Key Responsibilities

  • Reactive Maintenance: Promptly diagnose and repair mechanical and electrical faults on a wide range of packaging equipment, including conveyors, robots, palletisers, and automated control systems.

  • Preventative Maintenance (PPM): Execute and contribute to the development of planned maintenance schedules to ensure machine longevity and operational reliability.

  • Electrical & PLC Expertise: Perform in-depth electrical fault-finding, diagnostics, and repair on control panels, motors, drives, and PLC systems (e.g., Siemens, Allen Bradley).

  • Continuous Improvement: Participate in project support, including the installation and commissioning of new equipment, and proactively seek out opportunities for equipment modification and performance improvement.

  • Safety & Compliance: Ensure all maintenance activities adhere strictly to Health & Safety and quality standards.

✨ What We Offer

  • Salary: £45,000 per annum.

  • Work-Life Balance: Favourable day-shift pattern with an early finish on Friday:

    • Monday to Thursday: 8:00 am to 5:00 pm

    • Friday: 8:00 am to 4:00 pm

  • Career Growth: Excellent opportunities for professional development, including exposure to new technologies and career progression within the engineering department.

✅ About You

  • Proven experience as a Maintenance Technician/Engineer in a fast-paced packaging or automated manufacturing environment.

  • Strong Electrical bias with relevant technical qualifications (e.g., NVQ Level 3, C&G, BTEC, HNC/HND in Electrical Engineering).

  • Solid, hands-on experience with PLC fault-finding and diagnostics is essential.

  • A good understanding of mechanical systems (hydraulics, pneumatics, motors, bearings, conveyors).

  • Proactive, methodical, and capable of working independently and as part of a team under pressure.
