Location: RhayaderSalary: £39,000 to £40,000 per annum

What You’ll Do:

You will be joining a busy heavy manufacturing site where no two days are the same. This role offers genuine variety, working across the entire facility rather than being tied to a single production line.

Responsibilities:

  • Planned preventative and reactive electrical maintenance across the site
  • Respond to breakdowns and carry out effective fault finding on industrial machinery
  • Work with motors, contactors, relays, sensors, overloads, drives and inverters

  • Relevant experience as an Electrical Engineer or Electrician
  • Background in a manufacturing, industrial or heavy engineering environment
  • Solid knowledge of three‑phase and single‑phase systems, motor control circuits and safety circuits
  • Experience in fault finding on panels, field wiring and industrial electrical systems
  • A proactive attitude and willingness to get involved across a varied workload
  • The right mindset to learn, develop and grow within a stable engineering team

Experience with PLCs, hydraulics, pneumatics or drives would be an advantage but is not essential.

Why You Should Apply:

This is a great opportunity to join a well‑invested manufacturing business with long‑term stability and ongoing site projects.

Benefits:

  • Competitive salary of £39,000 to £40,000
  • Overtime paid at time and a half during the week and Saturdays
