* Maintain high Health & Safety standards and engineering compliance.
* Support installation and commissioning of new production equipment.
* Develop maintenance strategies to improve reliability and reduce recurring faults.
About You
We're looking for an experienced engineer who has progressed into a supervisory or team leadership position.
You will ideally have:
* Previous experience as a Maintenance Supervisor, Engineering Team Leader or Senior Maintenance Engineer.
* Background within Packaging, FMCG, Food, Print, Plastics, Paper, Recycling or Automated Manufacturing. Packaging manufacturing experience is especially desirable.
* Strong electrical and mechanical fault-finding skills.
* Experience with PLC fault diagnosis.
* Knowledge of conveyors, pneumatics, hydraulics, motors, gearboxes, drives and automated machinery.
* Experience leading engineering teams within a manufacturing environment.
* A recognised Engineering qualification (Apprenticeship, NVQ Level 3, HNC/HND or equivalent).
* Excellent communication and organisational skills.
What's on Offer
* £58,000 Basic Salary
* Panama Days Shift (Days Only)
* Excellent work-life balance
* Company pension
* Annual bonus scheme
* Overtime available
* Private healthcare
* Life assurance
* Ongoing technical and leadership development
* Genuine career progression within a growing manufacturing business
