Immediate Start
£60k - £70k Annual
Full-Time
An independent chemicals manufacturer is seeking a Technical Manager to lead engineering and technical operations at their growing site.
The business specialises in processing across various industries, and this role is key to their long-term succession and growth strategy.
The Role
You will take full ownership of site engineering, maintenance, CAPEX projects, and process improvement, with a high degree of autonomy to shape both short- and long-term strategy.
Key responsibilities include:
* Leading all technical and engineering operations across the site
* Designing and delivering CAPEX projects and new equipment installations
* Managing GMP validation (IQ/OQ/PQ) and regulatory compliance
* Driving process improvements and root cause investigations
* Overseeing maintenance strategy, budget, and shutdown planning
* Supporting HSE and quality systems (ISO9001, ISO14001, FSSC22000, HACCP, DSEAR)
* Acting as a technical interface with customers
About You
* Degree-qualified in Chemical Engineering (or similar)
* Strong experience in process manufacturing environments
* Proven leadership in engineering or technical management roles
* Experience in bulk solids handling highly desirable
* Skilled in CAPEX delivery, GMP environments, and HSE
What Makes This Role Different
This is a hands-on leadership role in a lean organisation. You will:
* Work directly with operators to solve real production challenges
* Take ownership of problems and drive solutions independently
* Operate with autonomy, not layers of approval
