• Diagnosing and resolving plant issues, including hydraulic, pneumatic, and mechanical systems.
• Ensuring all work is carried out safely and in line with ISO 9001 & ISO 14001 standards.
• Assisting with the creation of safe systems of work and best practice procedures.
• Supporting project work, equipment upgrades, and shutdowns as required.
• Collaborating with site engineers and managers to drive operational improvements and build future-ready facilities.

Who You Are

• Either Mechanically or Electrically certified.
• Experience in fault finding with mechanical, hydraulic, and pneumatic systems.
• Proven ability to lead improvements and implement robust PPM procedures.
• Strong communication skills, able to liaise effectively with site teams and engineers across locations.
• Experience in an industrial or process-driven environment; concrete, manufacturing, or similar backgrounds welcomed.
