You will also be required to work one Saturday in every four, from 06:00-14:00. When working the Saturday, the preceding Monday will be taken as a day off.

  • Identify opportunities for continuous improvement and contribute to site improvement activities.
  • Monitor on-site spare parts and help maintain appropriate stock levels.
  • Follow all Health & Safety, quality and company procedures.
  • Maintain professional working relationships with customers and other site stakeholders.
  • Ensure work is carried out with customer requirements and service levels in mind.

Experience Required

  • Experience working with automated systems or material handling equipment.
  • Experience with equipment such as cranes, pallet conveyors and automatic stretch wrappers would be beneficial.
  • Ability to read and understand mechanical, electrical and electronic drawings and technical manuals.
  • Good understanding of PLC systems, with the ability to fault-find to I/O level.
  • Understanding of planned preventative maintenance (PPM).
  • Experience using CMMS software for maintenance scheduling, fault logging and reporting.
  • Good IT skills, including Microsoft Teams, Word and Excel.
  • A multi-skilled background would be ideal, although candidates with a strong electrical or mechanical bias will also be considered.

  • Minimum NVQ Level 3 / City & Guilds in an engineering discipline, or equivalent.
  • ONC/HNC in Electrical or Mechanical Engineering would be advantageous.

Benefits
