Maintenance Engineer
When the plant stops, production stops, and that is where you come in.
As a Maintenance Engineer you would keep a busy manufacturing operation running, machine by machine.
As a Maintenance Engineer you will join the team that keeps an established manufacturing business running day to day. This is a mechanically-biased role. From production plant through to conveyors, hydraulics and pneumatics, you will carry out both planned maintenance and reactive repairs to keep the line moving and product going out on time. Your work matters. Output depends on the plant running reliably, so your job is to make sure breakdowns are rare, downtime is short and the equipment is kept in the best possible shape. If you take pride in fixing things properly and stopping problems before they start, this role gives you plenty to get your teeth into.
Job Responsibilities
Carrying out planned preventative maintenance across production plant and machinery to keep the line running
Responding quickly to mechanical breakdowns and getting equipment back into production with minimal downtime
Diagnosing and repairing faults across hydraulics, pneumatics, bearings, pumps, motors and conveyors
Maintaining and servicing production and material handling equipment across the site
Carrying out fabrication and welding repairs to plant and guarding as needed
Working from drawings, manuals and schematics to fault-find and complete repairs correctly
Carrying out safe isolations and basic electrical checks, escalating more complex electrical work where needed
Recording all maintenance work, parts used and machine history accurately on the maintenance system
Identifying recurring faults and improving reliability through better maintenance and small modifications
Maintaining a safe working area and following all health, safety and isolation procedures on site
Managing spares and consumables and flagging parts that need reordering
Skills and Experience
To succeed as a Maintenance Engineer you will need:
A recognised mechanical engineering qualification, such as a relevant apprenticeship, NVQ or equivalent time-served experience
Proven maintenance experience within a manufacturing, production or heavy industrial environment
Strong mechanical fault-finding skills across hydraulics, pneumatics and mechanical drive systems
The ability to read engineering drawings, schematics and equipment manuals
Confidence carrying out fabrication and welding repairs
A practical understanding of health and safety, including safe isolation and working at height
The ability to work on your own initiative and prioritise breakdowns against planned work
Some electrical awareness, with the confidence to carry out basic checks safely
A reliable, methodical approach and genuine pride in keeping plant running well
Pay and Benefits
A salary of £46,800 per year
A day shift of 06:00 to 16:00, Monday to Friday, with some flexibility if needed
Overtime occasionally available
The variety of a hands-on role across a wide range of plant and machinery
A key part in a small team where your work is genuinely valued
Ready to apply?
Good maintenance engineers are hard to find and harder to keep, which is exactly why this role matters. You would not be one of many. You would be a key part of a small team trusted to keep an entire manufacturing operation running, with the variety, autonomy and respect that comes with it. If you are a Maintenance Engineer who wants work that is genuinely hands-on and genuinely valued, apply now
