Lead Maintenance Engineer

Lead Maintenance Engineer Must Love Fixing Things, Not Just Hitting Them with a Hammer! Do you have a knack for keeping heavy machinery in check, an eye for electrical wizardry, and a healthy respect for heights? If so, our client wants YOU (Electrical Bias/Multi-Skilled)! We’re on a mission to take our site’s maintenance to world-class levels, and we need a hands-on problem solver who can lead the charge (and not just press "reset" when something beeps). What You’ll Be Doing (Besides Looking Heroic in a Hard Hat) Keeping our machinery in top shape with planned preventative maintenance (because breakdowns love bad timing). Troubleshooting complex electrical faults – PLCs, motors, inverter drives, you name it. Leading a small but mighty team – planning work, providing technical guidance, and sharing your mechanical/electrical wisdom. Developing and managing maintenance systems (yes, some paperwork, but we promise it’s worth it). Making sure our site is compliant with safety regs – because safety first, superhero stunts second. Proactively improving our processes and equipment to boost efficiency. What We’re Looking For (No Wizards, Just Skilled Humans) Solid experience in electrical & mechanical engineering (bonus points if you can fix things without swearing). A recognized electrical qualification – because we like our sparks in the circuits, not flying around. Experience with planned preventative maintenance systems – think ahead, not just fix what’s broken. Some knowledge of PLCs, motors, drives & electrical drawings (you don’t need to be an AI, just smarter than the machines). Comfortable working at heights – we won’t ask you to join the circus, but MEWP skills are a must. What’s in It for You? (Besides the Glory) * Salary: £48k (because your skills are worth it) plus call outs!!! * Annual Bonus (treat yourself!) * Perks Package – High street vouchers, cashback schemes, and other goodies. * Career Progression & Training Opportunities (we’re all about levelling up). * ShareSave Scheme – because we like to share success. If you’re the kind of person who sees a broken machine and has to fix it, applies logic before brute force, and enjoys keeping a site running smoothly, we want to hear from you! Apply now and bring your tools (and your A-game)! This role is only available to candidates with the right to work in the UK. Sadly, we can’t offer sponsorship or support student VISAs
