Summary
Electrical Maintenance Engineer
Somerset (Near Radstock / Midsomer Norton)
£36,000 - £42,000 + Overtime
Monday-Friday | Early Finish Every Friday
A well-established manufacturing business in Somerset is looking to add an Electrical Maintenance Engineer to its onsite engineering team.
This is a hands-on role within a stable engineering environment, working across a range of production equipment and manufacturing machinery.
The company has very low staff turnover and offers engineers a long-term career within a supportive team.
Why This Role Stands Out
? Early finish every Friday
? Monday-Friday only (no weekends)
? Unlimited overtime paid at time-and-a-half
? 34 days holiday including bank holidays + Christmas shutdown
? Stable engineering team with long tenure
? Varied machinery including both legacy and newer equipment
The Role
You will join a small engineering team responsible for keeping the manufacturing facility running efficiently through reactive maintenance, preventative maintenance and continuous improvement projects.
The role involves working across a range of production equipment including electrical systems, motors and control equipment.
Typical responsibilities include:
* Electrical fault finding on production machinery
* Reactive breakdown response and diagnosis
* Preventative maintenance and equipment inspections
* Installation and modification of machinery and equipment
* Working from electrical schematics and technical drawings
* Supporting improvement projects and machinery upgrades
* Maintaining high standards of safety and engineering practice
While this is primarily an electrical role, engineers with some mechanical maintenance experience (bearings, belts, pneumatics etc.) will be advantageous.
