This is an opportunity for a Maintenance Engineer to join a profitable and expanding manufacturing business within the food sector — a business investing heavily in its people, processes, and future growth.

• Fault‑finding on mechanical and/or electrical equipment
• Supporting production by minimising downtime and improving reliability
• Completing preventative maintenance tasks to a high standard
• Working safely with strict adherence to food industry and H&S standards
• Contributing to continuous improvement and sharing best practices with the team

What We’re Looking For

• A Level 3 qualified Maintenance Engineer (essential - NVQ, apprenticeship, or equivalent)
• Electrically or mechanically biased - both backgrounds considered
• A hands‑on Maintenance Engineer with strong problem‑solving skills
• Someone open to learning, developing, and moving into a multi‑skilled role
• Positive attitude, strong work ethic, and team‑focused mindset
• Willingness to work a rotating 4 on 4 off days and nights shift pattern

What’s on Offer

• Salary: £48,226.25 per annum (paid weekly, salaried)
• Clear progression path to become a multi‑skilled Maintenance Engineer
• Structured training and development, including exposure to food manufacturing systems
• Entry into a stable, growing food production environment with long‑term opportunities
• Supportive leadership team focused on developing engineers from within
• Consistent shift pattern offering strong work‑life balance
