Why would you want to work for them?

Ready to be part of something huge? This is a brand-new, state-of-the-art site with a massive £65 million investment that’s revolutionising the way things are done. With a focus on growth and innovation, you’ll be working in a high-tech environment that produces 105 million products every year!
As a maintenance engineer you will have the chance to work on brand new machinery (including Robots) and up-skilling is at the forefront of the culture. How many companies offer the chance for overtime to shadow and work closely on projects to develop more in-depth knowledge on PLC’s and provide accredited training courses to those who show willingness to learn. They have just built a brand new Siemens S7 test rig with the latest SCW and Siemens Drives to learn from.
This isn't just a job; it’s a career. Engineers who have joined the company have stepped up into roles like Team Leader, Supervisor, and even Group Engineering roles. You'll get the opportunity to shadow projects, collaborate closely with other teams, and gain invaluable knowledge in PLC systems and controls engineering.
Are you mechanically biased with reasonable electrical knowledge? No problem! You’ll have the chance to get Level 3 Electrical Training (equivalent to C&G Level 3) and become a fully multi-skilled maintenance engineer.
What’s the Culture Like?
This is a place where people work together and genuinely get on. The team is highly collaborative, and socialising outside of work is the norm. They actively encourage fresh ideas and are all about continuous improvement – if you’ve got an idea, they’ll listen.

Why You'll Love Working Here:

Amazing Pension: Matched contributions up to 10%, giving you 20% pension in total!
Generous Holiday: 22 days holiday (for the 4on/4off shift) – that’s above the average for similar shifts.
Overtime Pay: Time-and-a-half during the week, double time on Sundays!
OEM Training: Get top-tier training from leading manufacturers on-site – perfect for engineers who want to stay at the top of their game.
PLC Siemens Training: For those ready to dive deeper into controls, you’ll have access to on-site PLC training and a dedicated test rig for the maintenance engineer
Level 3 Electrical Courses: If you’re mechanically biased, take the opportunity to up-skill to Level 3 Electrical – become fully multi-skilled.
Employee Support: Access to mental health support, GP services, and an Employee Assistance Program – we care about your wellbeing.
Exclusive Discounts: Save with vouchers from top retailers!
Leadership Opportunities: Step into leadership roles – current team leaders have grown from within, and the company even paid for their ILM Level 3 Leadership qualification.
Strong Team Culture: Everyone works together like family. Culture fit is key – they want people who will thrive in a collaborative, forward-thinking environment.

What We’re Looking for:

At least 3 year’s experience working as a maintenance engineer 
Must be qualified to Level 3 in an Engineering Discipline
Ideally be a multi-skilled maintenance engineer with an electrical bias
If mechanically biased – need to have a reasonable level of electrical knowledge as a maintenance engineer
Experience with any of the following advantageous: Conveyors, Kilns, dryers, crushers, robots.
Ex-forces encouraged to apply
