Great maintenance engineering role for someone who’s good at figuring out what’s gone wrong, fixing it fast, and getting the line moving again — ideally before anyone notices it stopped.
You're the person who doesn’t panic when an alarm goes off. You’re already walking towards the issue while everyone else is still trying to remember where the stop button is.
The environment? FMCG / food manufacturing / fast-paced kit-heavy chaos. You know the type — where if one thing goes down, everything stops, and suddenly you’re the most popular person on site.
What you’ll be doing:-
Fault finding — quick, accurate, and ideally not just turning it off and on again
-
Fixing things properly the first time
-
Spotting problems before they turn into breakdowns
-
Working closely with production to keep downtime to a minimum
-
Getting stuck into improvement projects when things are running (so, not that often)
-
An electrical bias — qualified, experienced, and confident under pressure
-
Background in FMCG, food, or fast-moving manufacturing
-
A sharp eye, steady hands, and the ability to make decisions without holding a meeting about it
-
Bonus points if you’ve got a sense of humour and don’t sulk when asked to do overtime
-
Sitting in a maintenance office waiting for instructions
-
Logging jobs for someone else to fix
-
Working somewhere that still thinks “run to fail” is a maintenance strategy
If you want somewhere that lets you get stuck in, values engineers who can think on their feet, and actually invests in their kit — this one’s worth a look.
