Job description

Maintenance Manager - Teesside

Join a mission-driven industrial leader focused on reducing CO₂ emissions and driving sustainable performance.

We're looking for a strategic, hands-on Maintenance Manager who can do more than just manage-someone who can implement smart strategies, lead teams, and contribute to business growth. This is an opportunity to shape the future of a growing site by embedding maintenance excellence into its foundation.

Your Mission

In this key leadership role, you'll take ownership of the maintenance function-developing, executing, and continuously improving a strategy that supports safe, efficient, and reliable plant operations. Starting with a close-up view of current processes, you'll build systems, mentor your team, and scale the function to meet future growth.

Key Responsibilities

  • Design, implement, and own maintenance strategies that increase equipment reliability, reduce downtime, and support long-term plant goals
  • Lead and grow a high-performing team of technicians, providing guidance, coaching, and structure
  • 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 2years 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
  • Commercial awareness and the ability to contribute to operational growth through maintenance improvements
  • A problem-solver mindset, with strong communication skills and a passion for driving a culture of excellence
