Maintenance Engineer

Let’s start with the bit engineers actually care about. You finish work Friday morning at 06:00. You don’t come back until Sunday night at 22:00. That’s a proper long weekend every week. No Friday nights. No Saturday shifts. No Sunday daytime. Just solid nights and two and a half days off. The Job This is a multi-skilled maintenance engineer role in a busy manufacturing environment. Your focus is simple: Keep the plant running. Fix problems quickly. Stop them happening again. You’ll be working closely with production and the wider engineering team to: • Fault find and repair electrical and mechanical breakdowns • Carry out planned preventative maintenance • Improve reliability and reduce downtime • Support continuous improvement across the site Electrically you’ll be working on things like: • Single & three phase systems • Sensors and control systems • AC motors / servo motors • Some PLC fault finding Mechanically you’ll get involved with: • Gearboxes • Drives and rollers • Shafts and bearings • Pneumatics and hydraulics Nothing overly glamorous. Just solid engineering work on a busy site. The Package Salary: £47,000 Nights premium: £6,000 Total package: £53k Benefits include: • Private healthcare • Discounted gym membership • Perkbox discounts (shopping, cinema, food etc) • 24/7 GP access & wellbeing support • Company pension • Free parking • Career progression and training Holiday: 23 days + bank holidays Because shifts are 12 hours, that’s over 280 hours of leave per year, which is actually more than a standard 28 day contract. You also get a fixed Christmas shutdown. The Person You’ll probably be: • A multi-skilled maintenance engineer • Electrically biased ideally • NVQ Level 3 qualified or time served • Comfortable fault finding on production machinery Manufacturing experience is key. The Company This business operates across multiple UK sites. They’re well established, financially stable, and continue to invest in their engineering teams. In other words: It’s not a startup. It’s not chaos. It’s a proper manufacturing business. If you’d like to know more, apply or drop me a message and I’ll happily talk you through the role
