This is an opportunity to shape the future of a growing site by embedding maintenance excellence into its foundation.

Your Mission

• Develop and embed planned, preventative, and predictive maintenance programs
• Ensure full compliance with H&S, environmental, and regulatory standards, particularly in COMAH or similar regulated environments
• Drive continuous improvement by identifying inefficiencies, analysing failure data, and applying root cause analysis
• Contribute to wider business growth initiatives, including capacity expansion, capex projects, and performance upgrades
• Work cross-functionally with operations, engineering, and senior leadership to align maintenance with business priorities

What You'll Bring

• HND or Degree in Engineering (Mechanical, Electrical, or related discipline)
• 10+ years of maintenance experience, with at least 2 years in a leadership or supervisory position
• Proven track record of implementing maintenance strategies and leading high-performing teams
• Experience in top-tier COMAH or equivalent high-risk, process-led environments
