About the role
Our Shift Engineers are experts in their field and ensure our world class manufacturing plant is operational 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Working within a dedicated team, the Shift Engineer is responsible for investigating and dealing with all adjustments and breakdowns - whether operational, electrical or mechanical; and ensuring they are repaired and completed in the most effective, cost efficient and timely manner. Working a 4 on 4 off shift pattern (days and nights), you will support the production cell team members to achieve their target OEE and production KPIs; and work to ensure there is minimal downtime of the production lines.
About you
With recognised electrical and mechanical engineering qualifications, you will have solid, demonstrable experience of working as a multi-skilled engineer in a manufacturing environment Ideally this experience will have been gained in a food or beverage production or FMCG facility, but provided you have hands on knowledge of manufacturing plant, we can provide industry specific training. You will be adept at fault finding and root cause analysis - both electrically and mechanically and will have worked on complex control systems and PLCs. We are also looking for you to be confident working under minimal supervision and to have a real passion for sharing information through the creation of quality engineering reports and applying good working practices. Being able to work as a team member is key and you should be familiar with the fast pace of food manufacturing and of the expectations required for the whole team.
