  • Previous experience in a maintenance role within manufacturing, or similar industries.
  • Strong fault-finding skills and ability to work independently.
  • A proactive attitude and interest in continuous improvement.
  • Knowledge of health and safety regulations.
  • Fabrication skills would be an advantage.
  • Beneficial but not essential: FLT Licence & MEWP Licence.

Why You Should Apply:

  • Competitive salary up to £45,000 for a days-only role.
  • Monday to Friday, 7:30 AM - 4 PM, with an early finish on Fridays.
  • No weekend work or call-outs as standard.
  • 25 days holiday plus bank holidays, plus Christmas shutdown.
  • Pension scheme (5% employee / 3% employer), life insurance (4x salary), and cycle-to-work scheme.
  • Free parking and a supportive, collaborative team culture.
  • Opportunities to influence improvements and be part of a business investing in growth and diversification.
