Your new role
As a Shift Maintenance Engineer, you will play a key role in ensuring the reliability and performance of site equipment within a fast-paced manufacturing environment. This is a hands-on, on-site position working on a rotating shift pattern.

This role offers an excellent opportunity to broaden your technical skillset in a dynamic and supportive environment.
What you'll need to succeed
- Electrical apprenticeship or equivalent qualification
- Experience working with 3‑phase systems up to 415V
- 18th Edition (or willingness to train)
- Multi‑skilled maintenance experience (mechanical, pneumatic or hydraulic beneficial)
- Experience in food manufacturing or FMCG environments
- Strong communication, organisational, and problem‑solving skills
- Ability to manage a varied workload and work independently
What you'll get in return
- Supportive team environment
- Ongoing training and development opportunities
- Early responsibility in a hands‑on engineering role
- A stable, growing business with long‑term career prospects
