Multi-Skilled Maintenance Engineer

Wolverhampton | Days | No Nights, Weekends or On-Call

We're recruiting for a modern, largely automated manufacturing site producing high-volume engineered components for automotive and wider industrial customers.

It's a relatively small operation within a much larger group, and we're looking for aMulti-Skilled Maintenance Engineer to take responsibility for maintenance across the site.

You'll be the main maintenance engineer on site, working alongside an apprentice, so you'll need the confidence and breadth of knowledge to deal with whatever manufacturing throws at you.

The good news?

There's already a maintenance structure in place, with a genuine emphasis on planned and preventative maintenance rather than endless breakdowns.

And there'sno night shift, weekend working or on-call rota.

You'll look after a mixture of traditional manufacturing equipment and modern automated plant, including:

• Mechanical and electrical maintenance

• Planned and preventative maintenance

• Fault finding and breakdown support

• PLC-controlled machinery

• Automated production equipment

• Robotics

• Motors, drives, sensors and associated electrical systems

• Mechanical systems and traditional production equipment

• Supporting equipment improvements and reliability projects

• Working with and developing the site's maintenance apprentice

You'll need to be a genuinelymulti-skilled engineer, comfortable getting involved mechanically and electrically.

You'll ideally have:

• Experience maintaining manufacturing or production equipment

• Strong mechanical fault-finding skills

• Good electrical maintenance and fault-finding ability

• 18th Edition

• Experience with PLC-controlled equipment

• Exposure to automation and/or robotics

• Experience of planned preventative maintenance

• The confidence to operate as the site's principal maintenance engineer

Automotive manufacturing experience would be useful, but isn't essential. What's more important is experience of maintaininghigh-volume production machinery and being equally comfortable with older mechanical equipment and modern automated systems.

This is a good opportunity for an experienced engineer who wantsownership of a site, varied equipment and sensible working hours without nights, weekends or being permanently attached to an on-call phone.
