Ready to lead a technical team where your fault-finding skills are as valued as your ability to bring people on?
Competitive Salary | Permanent | Hinckley, Leicestershire
Core hours: Monday to Friday, 8am–4pm
Defined progression pathway to Engineering Manager
24/7 escalation rota (rolling basis)
Ongoing specialist training and coaching support
Motiontech designs, builds, and maintains automated distribution centres for major UK retailers. Specialising in conveyors, sorters, cranes, and hanging garment systems, their engineers keep some of the UK's largest supply chains running around the clock.

You will:
Lead and coach 12 engineers, building technical confidence across the team
Diagnose complex faults and resolve issues others can't, escalating where needed
Develop "how-to" guides and easy-works documentation from real solutions
Manage stores and spares, building supplier relationships and protecting parts availability
Ensure Planned Preventative Maintenance is completed on time via the CMMS
Identify upgrade and lifecycle projects to improve throughput and reduce obsolescence
Cover the Engineering Manager during absences and support the 24/7 escalation rota
What you'll bring
Essential:
Proven experience in automation engineering (conveyors, sorters, cranes, or similar)
ONC/HNC in engineering (electrical bias preferred) or time-served apprenticeship equivalent
Strong fault diagnosis and problem-solving capability at an advanced level
Experience leading or supervising a technical team
Useful, not essential:
Exposure to hanging garment systems
Experience with a Computerised Maintenance System (CMMS)
Background in customer-facing or contract maintenance environments
Benefits & culture
Financial: Competitive Salary
Flexibility: Core hours 8am–4pm, Monday to Friday
Development: Clear pathway from Supervisor to Engineering Manager and specialist training support.
