We have a vacancy for an Engineering Technician to join our engineering team on a rotating shift pattern covering 7 days a week. As part of this team you will undertake a wide range of tasks including planned preventative maintenance and provide an efficient response to breakdowns in order to maintain optimum efficiency. You will also be expected to actively seek improvement opportunities and implement those improvements where possible to further develop the efficiency and productivity of the business.
The successful candidates must hold an electrical qualification. You must be an excellent fault finder and also have strong mechanical skills with a good working knowledge of pneumatics, hydraulics and PLC's. You will be expected to accurately record all maintenance work using our computerised maintenance system so strong computer skills are a must.
The role is crucial to the efficient running of the site and therefore you will be required to demonstrate excellent communication skills when liaising with internal departments and external contractors and have a flexible and proactive approach to ensure the overall needs of the business are met. Ideally you will have direct experience working with food processing and packaging equipment, however familiarisation training on this specialist equipment can be provided for the right candidate.
