Why would you want to work for them?

Ready to be part of something huge? This is a brand-new, state-of-the-art site with a £65 million investment that’s revolutionising the industry. You’ll work in a high-tech environment producing 105 million products annually.

As a maintenance engineer, you will have the opportunity to work on new machinery, including robots. Up-skilling is a core part of the culture, with chances for overtime, project shadowing, and accredited training courses for motivated individuals. They have recently built a Siemens S7 test rig with the latest SCW and Siemens Drives for learning purposes.

This isn’t just a job; it’s a career. Many engineers have advanced into roles such as Team Leader, Supervisor, and Group Engineering. You will have the chance to collaborate on projects and deepen your knowledge of PLC systems and controls engineering.

If you are mechanically biased with reasonable electrical knowledge, you can also pursue Level 3 Electrical Training (equivalent to C&G Level 3) to become a fully multi-skilled maintenance engineer.

• Leadership Opportunities: Internal promotion and ILM Level 3 Leadership qualification support.
• Strong Team Culture: A family-like, collaborative environment.

What We’re Looking for:

• Minimum 3 years’ experience as a maintenance engineer.
• Qualified to Level 3 in an Engineering Discipline.
• Ideally a multi-skilled engineer with an electrical bias.
• If mechanically biased, reasonable electrical knowledge is required.
• Experience with conveyors, kilns, dryers, crushers, or robots is advantageous.
