Alexander Steele Recruitment is working in partnership with an established and successful food manufacturing business to recruit an Reliability Engineer to join their engineering team.

This is a great opportunity for an experienced Maintenance Engineer who enjoys getting to the root of equipment issues, improving machinery reliability and taking a more proactive approach to maintenance.

The position offers a permanent dayshift pattern, three consecutive days off every week and the opportunity to work within a well-established engineering function.

The Role

Working alongside the wider engineering and production teams, you'll play an important part in keeping site equipment operating efficiently and reliably.

Rather than being primarily focused on reactive breakdowns, this position centres around delivering effective planned preventative maintenance, identifying potential issues before they become problems and supporting improvements across the site.

Key responsibilities include:

• Carrying out planned preventative maintenance across a range of production and manufacturing equipment.
• Identifying potential equipment failures and implementing improvements to reduce unplanned downtime.
• Working closely with engineering colleagues to plan and deliver maintenance activities around production requirements.
• Supporting machinery improvements, modifications and new equipment installations.
• Contributing to continuous improvement initiatives focused on equipment performance, reliability and efficiency.
• Maintaining accurate maintenance records and ensuring work is completed to a high standard.
• Ensuring all maintenance activities are carried out safely and in line with site procedures.

What We're Looking For

We're keen to speak with experienced Maintenance Engineers who enjoy hands-on engineering and take pride in maintaining equipment to a high standard.

Ideally, you'll have:

• A recognised mechanical engineering qualification, ideally with an apprenticeship background.
• Previous experience in a maintenance engineering role within manufacturing or a similar industrial environment.
• A good understanding of planned preventative maintenance and machinery reliability.
• Strong fault-finding and problem-solving skills.
• Experience working with production machinery and associated mechanical systems.
• A proactive approach to maintenance and continuous improvement.

What's on Offer?

• Salary of £45,000–£56,000, depending on experience.
• Permanent dayshift: Wednesday to Saturday, 7am–7pm.
• Three consecutive days off every week.
• Enhanced company pension scheme.
• Training and development opportunities.
• Employee benefits and discount schemes.
• Opportunity to contribute to engineering improvements and projects.
• A stable opportunity within an established manufacturing business.
