Are you a Multi-Skilled Maintenance Engineer looking for an outstanding work–life balance without compromising on salary or technical challenge?
This is a fantastic opportunity to join a well-established, asset-heavy industrial site offering a days-only 4 on / 4 off shift pattern — meaning no nights and half the year off. The site continues to invest in plant, equipment, and engineering standards, making this a strong long-term career move.

High-usage, mechanically and electrically demanding environment

Key responsibilities include:
-
Electrical and mechanical fault finding on industrial machinery
-
Planned Preventive Maintenance (PPM) to maximise reliability
-
Reactive breakdown response to minimise downtime
-
Supporting continuous improvement and reliability projects
-
Working closely with operations and fellow engineers

What We’re Looking For

Background in industrial, manufacturing, FMCG, or process-driven environments

Relevant engineering qualification (NVQ Level 2/3, apprenticeship, or equivalent)
-
Proactive, reliable, and team-focused approach

Days only + 4 on / 4 off = exceptional work–life balance
