• Use a tablet-based CMMS to track jobs and log work
• Maintain high levels of communication with the team and the customer via radio, phone, and email
• Contribute to improving engineering uptime and customer service

What We're Looking For

This position would suit a well-rounded maintenance engineer with strong electrical skills and a proactive mindset.

• Level 3 qualification in Electrical or Mechanical Engineering (with electrical modules if mechanically biased)
• Confident electrical fault-finding with the ability to read schematics
• Previous experience in an automated or fast-paced industrial setting
• Good communication and teamwork skills
• Eagerness to adapt and support a continuous improvement culture

Why Apply?

This is a rare opportunity for a maintenance engineer to work in a structured, well-invested site where you'll receive full site-specific training, enjoy long-term job stability, and be part of a professional and friendly engineering team.
