• Supporting the rollout of asset care and autonomous maintenance activity in partnership with Operations
• Acting as a technical point of reference for maintenance supervisors and technicians
• Getting involved in continuous improvement projects across the site

What's needed:

• Multi-skilled engineer (mechanical and electrical), ideally FMCG or food manufacturing background, though other high-speed manufacturing environments will be considered
• Strong track record in PPM, breakdown analysis and reliability-focused maintenance
• Experience managing critical spares would be a real advantage
• Comfortable analysing CMMS and plant data to make evidence-based maintenance decisions
• Some front-line management or team leadership experience preferred
