When production stops, everything stops.

We’re supporting a well‑established food manufacturing site that needs an experienced Electrical Bias Maintenance Engineer to step in and keep operations running smoothly during a critical period.

  • Supporting PPM schedules across automated production equipment
  • Working on fast‑moving production lines where uptime is critical
  • Troubleshooting PLC‑controlled machinery
  • Collaborating with the existing engineering team to maintain output

The Environment

  • High‑volume food manufacturing / FMCG
  • Fast‑paced, breakdown‑critical production
  • Modern automated machinery and packaging lines

What We’re Looking For

  • Strong electrical bias with solid mechanical understanding
  • Proven experience in food manufacturing or FMCG
  • Confidence working on equipment such as conveyors, packaging machinery (e.g. Multivac), checkweighers / metal detectors and PLC fault finding experience
  • Ability to work independently from day one
