Maintenance Engineer – Shift (Days & Nights)

This business has been part of almost every household for years. Which means you’re not walking into some shaky start-up — you’re joining a stable, progressive FMCG giant that’s big on quality, investment, and actually looking after its people.

Your job? Keep production moving, downtime low, and standards high. You’ll be knee-deep in automation, electrical and mechanical troubleshooting — and just as importantly, you’ll be spotting improvements that actually make a difference instead of filling out a suggestion form that disappears into a drawer.

What you’ll be doing:

  • Fault-finding and fixing electrical, mechanical, and automation issues mid-shift.

  • Proactive and reactive maintenance (because “wait and see” is how things break).

  • Driving improvement projects to boost plant performance.

  • Supporting OEE, cutting downtime, and keeping the place safe.

  • Coaching operators and junior engineers so they don’t break things in the first place.

  • Building a culture of pride, performance, and continuous improvement.

What you’ll need:

  • Time-served apprenticeship with an electrical bias.

  • Calm under pressure and good at explaining things without sounding like a textbook.

  • Comfortable coaching others and being the technical go-to.

  • Solutions-focused and not afraid to challenge “we’ve always done it this way.”

What’s in it for you:

  • Company pension scheme with up to 10% employer contribution.

  • Life assurance.

  • Wellbeing support — including counselling and financial advice.

  • Salary finance and cycle-to-work schemes.

  • Retail discounts with hundreds of outlets.

  • Full induction and ongoing training.

If you want a role where you’re trusted to solve problems, supported to improve, and part of a team that gets things done
