Maintenance Engineer4 on 4 off (Days & Nights)Middlesbrough Area
The site
This is one of the UK’s leading party food production sites – bhajis, samosas, onion rings, spring rolls. If it’s in the party food aisle at a major UK supermarket, there’s a good chance it was made right here, at scale and at speed.
Part of a bigger story
This site is part of a larger UK food manufacturing group, home to a portfolio of well-known British food brands. The group has grown quickly in recent years – now spanning close to 20 sites nationally with annual turnover approaching £1.5bn – and continues to expand through ongoing investment and acquisition.
A new senior leadership team has been built out over the past year, as the business pushes towards a clear ambition: becoming the UK’s leading chilled prepared food group.
For engineers, that growth is real opportunity: sites are being brought up to consistent standards, systems are being modernised, and there’s genuine scope to build a career as the group scales – not just maintain the status quo.
