Electrical Maintenance Engineer (Contract)
Location: Desford
Shift Pattern: 4 on 4 off (Days & Nights)
Salary: £36p/h
Overview
We are seeking a highly skilled Electrical Maintenance Engineer to join a large engineering team at a state-of-the-art, highly automated manufacturing facility. This is a brand-new, high-volume production site set to become one of the fastest in Europe, offering excellent training, modern equipment, and long-term progression.
This position has become available due to an engineer leaving, creating an excellent opportunity for a strong electrically-biased engineer to join a well-supported and forward-thinking team.
Key Responsibilities
- Provide electrical maintenance, fault finding, and repair across a variety of automated manufacturing equipment.
- Work on conveyors, mixers, ovens, kilns, and other large-scale industrial machinery.
- Support continuous improvement, reliability, and efficiency across the site.
- Work within a large engineering team (approx. 20 engineers), ensuring safe and efficient operation of all equipment.
- Complete handover processes daily (5:30-6:00).
- Participate in holiday cover to reduce banked hours (296 hours reducing to 206 after handover deductions).
- Undertake planned and reactive maintenance in a dusty, fast-paced FMCG/industrial environment.
