• Deliver planned preventative maintenance (PPM) and reactive maintenance across a range of modern packaging machinery.
• Diagnose and resolve process issues especially those affecting packaging accuracy, throughput, or equipment reliability.
• Investigate faults such as misfeeds, jams, product misalignment, or packaging defects (e.g., twisted pallets, missing items).
• Implement modifications and improvements to reduce downtime and boost efficiency.
• Work closely with the team to maintain engineering standards and ensure high operational uptime.
• Contribute to root cause analysis and offer engineering-led solutions to reduce reoccurring issues.
• Apply a hands-on approach to machinery, focusing on technical and mechanical problem-solving.
• Identify and deliver continuous improvement initiatives across the site.

What We're Looking For:

• Proven experience in FMCG or high-volume manufacturing environments.
• Strong mechanical and electrical fault-finding skills.
• Exposure to modern packaging equipment with a passion for understanding and improving machinery.
• A tinkerer mindset curious, hands-on, and solutions-driven.
• Strong communication and team collaboration skills.
• NVQ Level 3 / HNC or equivalent in Mechanical/Electrical Engineering.
• Comfortable in a data-driven, solutions-focused engineering culture.
