• Ensure all work is carried out safely and in line with compliance requirements.
• Perform PLC and electrical diagnostics to identify and resolve system issues.

• Proven experience working with automated machinery in an FMCG or manufacturing environment.

• Proficiency in PLC programming (Allen Bradley, Siemens, or similar), and experience with SQL, Python, or Java.
• Strong problem-solving and analytical skills, with a proactive approach to optimisation and reliability.
