* Responding to breakdowns and carrying out effective electrical fault finding
* Supporting PPM schedules across automated production equipment
* Working on fast-moving production lines where uptime is critical
* Troubleshooting PLC-controlled machinery
* Collaborating with the existing engineering team to maintain output
The Environment
* High-volume food manufacturing / FMCG
* Fast-paced, breakdown-critical production
* Modern automated machinery and packaging lines
What We’re Looking For
* Strong electrical bias with solid mechanical understanding
* Proven experience in food manufacturing or FMCG
* Confidence working on equipment such as:
* Conveyors
* Packaging machinery (e.g. Multivac)
* Checkweighers / metal detectors
* PLC fault finding experience
* Ability to work independently from day one
