📌 Electrically Biased Maintenance Engineer
📍 Mid - Wales
💰 £40,000 to £50,000 per annum
What You'll Do:
You'll join a small maintenance team supporting a contract packing and manufacturing operation. Working days alongside production, you'll be responsible for planned and reactive maintenance across a varied range of machinery.
Your role will focus on electrical fault finding, breakdown response, and improvement work across conveyors, bucket elevators, bag weighers, heat sealers, robotics, and mixing equipment. You'll also support mechanical tasks such as replacing rollers, motors, and gearboxes, working within a multi-skilled environment.
You'll be involved in fault finding on PLC-controlled systems, using HMIs and ladder logic to diagnose issues, while working closely with experienced colleagues and external suppliers on more complex control or robotics problems.
