Summary
Lead Maintenance Engineer / Engineering Supervisor
Step Up Role | FMCG | PPM-Led Site | Mon-Fri | No On-Call
Ready to step up and lead - without the stress of a reactive site?
This is a brilliant opportunity for a Team Leader / Senior Engineer to move into a hands-on leadership role on a site that's already doing things the right way.
No firefighting. No chaos. Just a structured, PPM-driven environment where you can actually lead, improve, and make an impact.
The Role:
You'll lead from the front - supporting a small engineering team while staying close to the kit across mixing, batching & filling production lines.
