* Hands-on work with conveyors, pan mixers, hydraulics and pneumatics
* Basic electrical fault finding and repair on low voltage systems
* Welding and light fabrication repairs as needed
* Supporting and guiding production staff on minor maintenance where required
* Working closely with the wider team to improve PPM systems and minimise breakdowns

* Confident fault finding on mechanical, hydraulic and pneumatic systems
* Able to work independently and part of a team
* Comfortable with basic welding and low-voltage electrical work
