About the Company

We are a leading manufacturer of innovative infrastructure products, including road plates and trench covers. The company is undergoing significant growth, investment, and operational transition-making this an exciting time to join.

The Role

This is a hands‑on, electrically biased maintenance role focused on ensuring the reliability and performance of production equipment within a fast‑paced manufacturing environment.

You will play a key role in maintaining, improving, and troubleshooting plant machinery, with a strong emphasis on electrical systems. The business is looking for a proactive engineer who takes ownership, solves problems, and isn’t afraid to get stuck in.

Key Responsibilities

  • Carry out planned and reactive maintenance across site machinery
  • Diagnose and repair electrical faults on production equipment
  • Support ongoing improvements and site upgrades during a period of change
  • Work on control systems, motors, drives, and associated electrical equipment
  • Assist with mechanical maintenance when required (hydraulics, pneumatics)
  • Ensure minimal downtime and contribute to continuous improvement
  • Work independently and manage your own workload effectively

Candidate Requirements

Essential

  • Electrically biased maintenance background (approx. 70% electrical)
  • Recognised electrical qualifications (e.g. City & Guilds, NVQ, ONC/HNC)
  • 18th Edition Wiring Regulations (17th or 16th considered)
  • Strong fault‑finding and problem‑solving ability
  • Hands‑on approach with a willingness to work on the tools

Desirable

  • Basic mechanical skills (hydraulics, pneumatics)
  • Experience within manufacturing or industrial environments

The Ideal Candidate

  • Enjoys practical, hands‑on engineering work
  • Self‑sufficient and able to work without close supervision
  • Takes ownership rather than just reporting issues
  • Comfortable working in a changing, evolving environment
  • Reliable and trustworthy – someone who can be left to get the job done
