  • Supporting continuous improvement projects and contributing ideas to enhance reliability and efficiency.

  • Working closely with the wider team to promote a positive, proactive engineering culture.

What you'll need:

  • Proven experience as a multiskilled maintenance engineer within a manufacturing environment.

  • Strong electrical and mechanical fault-finding skills.

  • Ability to read and interpret engineering drawings and schematics.

  • Familiarity with PLC-controlled and automated machinery (Siemens, Allen Bradley, or similar).

  • A team player with excellent problem-solving skills and a hands-on approach.

What you'll get in return:

  • Salary up to £51,000 per annum.

  • Access to online and high-street discount schemes plus a range of employee benefits.

  • A supportive team environment with opportunities for development and progression.
