About Us

Location: North West (primarily Wirral, with travel to other sites)

Contract: Full-time, Permanent

Concept Projects Group is a fast-moving, forward-thinking engineering project team working across FMCG, construction, food production, and pharmaceutical industries. We pride ourselves on delivering innovative, high-quality solutions for our blue-chip clients.

The Role

We’re seeking a proactive and motivated Mechanical Engineer to support a range of exciting projects across multiple industrial sites in the North West. You’ll be involved from concept to completion—designing, developing, installing, and maintaining machinery, systems, and processes to solve real-world challenges and improve operational efficiency.

This is a hands-on, varied role where no two days are the same. You’ll need to be comfortable working on-site, adapting quickly to changing priorities, and delivering work to the highest professional standards.

What You’ll Do

  • Provide mechanical solutions from design through to installation.
  • Support and maintain manufacturing equipment—particularly in FMCG and pharmaceutical environments.
  • Repair and overhaul motors, pumps, valves, bearings, and shafts.
  • Modify and improve existing machinery and manufacturing lines.
  • Work with utilities (compressed air, steam, water) and adapt piping systems.
  • Fabricate, fit, and assemble components to technical drawings.
  • Operate fabrication tools and plant equipment (training/licences provided if needed).
  • Offer engineering expertise to our project management team.

What We’re Looking For

  • Time-served or apprentice-trained mechanical or electrical engineer.
  • Experience in a similar role, ideally in a fast-paced manufacturing environment.
  • Strong bench fitting and machining skills.
  • Solid understanding of design principles, materials, and technical drawings (CAD).
  • Skilled in problem-solving, RCA, and continuous improvement.
  • Ability to work independently or as part of a team, meeting tight deadlines.
  • Excellent communication skills and confidence in a client-facing role.
  • Basic Microsoft Office skills for reports and spreadsheets.

Desirable but not essential

  • Experience working at height (MEWP/Scissor Lift).
  • Background in blue-chip manufacturing.
  • IOSH certification.

What We Offer

  • £40,000–£50,000 salary (depending on experience).
  • 23 days holiday + Bank Holidays (rising to 25 days after probation).
  • Company pension scheme.
  • Regular training and professional development.
  • Inclusive employee benefits, including gym membership.

If you’re a problem-solver with hands-on skills, pride in your work, and a passion for engineering excellence, we’d love to hear from you.

Apply now and join a team where your expertise makes a real difference.
