Are you a mechanically biased Reliability Engineer, Condition Monitoring Engineer or Predictive Maintenance Engineer with experience of vibration analysis, rotating equipment and root cause investigation?
We are recruiting for a hands-on Reliability Engineer to improve the availability, performance, and long-term reliability of anaerobic digestion plants and gas-upgrading equipment across the East of England and the UK.
This is not a desk-based role. You will work directly with maintenance teams, plant operators, and engine technicians, using condition monitoring and reliability-engineering techniques to identify faults early, prevent repeat failures, and reduce unplanned downtime.
What's in it for you?
- Bonus scheme
- Company van or car allowance
- Private healthcare
- Up to 7.5% contributory pension
- 33 days' annual leave including bank holidays
- Home-based role with UK-wide responsibility
- All tools and condition-monitoring equipment provided
- Opportunity to build and shape a predictive maintenance programme
The role
As Reliability Engineer, you will:
- Carry out vibration analysis, thermography, oil analysis, and LDAR condition monitoring
- Lead Root Cause Analysis investigations into repeat failures and plant breakdowns
- Complete FMEA assessments on critical equipment, systems, and processes
- Build and develop predictive maintenance routes across multiple sites
- Analyse condition-monitoring data and produce clear technical reports
- Raise maintenance actions and record findings within the CMMS
- Troubleshoot mechanical faults and support rapid plant recovery
- Recommend equipment upgrades, maintenance improvements, and corrective actions
- Work closely with maintenance teams, engine technicians, and plant operators
- Travel to biogas plants and other sites across the UK
