We’re working with a highly respected, long-established UK  manufacturer known for premium quality, craftsmanship, and continuous innovation. Operating from a modern, well-invested production facility in North Yorkshire, the business blends traditional production values with advanced automated manufacturing systems.

This is an opportunity for a Multi-Skilled Maintenance Engineer to join a highly capable engineering team where standards are high, investment is consistent, and engineering plays a critical role in protecting product quality and operational performance.

Why This Role is Attractive

This is not a high-volume, high-churn FMCG environment. Instead, it offers:

· A quality-led operation – Engineering supports premium product standards where precision and care matter

· Strong capital investment – Modern equipment, ongoing upgrades, and a clear focus on reliability and efficiency

· Balanced workload – A mix of planned maintenance, reactive support, and improvement activity

· Genuine engineering influence – Engineers are involved in problem-solving and long-term reliability improvements, not just breakdown response

· Stable, well-run environment – Low drama, structured, and professionally managed maintenance function

· Varied technology – From legacy systems to highly automated, PLC-driven production lines

Key Responsibilities

· Carry out planned preventative maintenance (PPM) across production and packaging assets

· Respond effectively to breakdowns, diagnosing and resolving mechanical and electrical faults

· Work across pneumatic, hydraulic, mechanical, and electrical systems

· Support installation, commissioning, and modification of new and existing equipment

· Contribute to continuous improvement initiatives focused on reliability, uptime, and efficiency

· Ensure compliance with food safety, hygiene, and engineering safety standards (GMP / HACCP)

· Accurately record maintenance activity using CMMS systems

About You

We are looking for a hands-on, solutions-focused engineer who enjoys working in a fast-paced but controlled manufacturing environment.

You will likely have:

· Recognised engineering qualification (Level 3 NVQ, HNC or equivalent)

· Strong multi-skilled capability (electrical and mechanical fault-finding)

· Experience within FMCG, food, packaging, or similar regulated manufacturing

· Confident fault diagnosis on automated production equipment

· A proactive mindset with a focus on prevention and continuous improvement

· Strong communication skills and a team-oriented approach

What’s on Offer

· Salary of £58,000 + bonus

· Excellent pension scheme

· Ongoing technical training and development

· Exposure to modern automation and continuous improvement projects

· Long-term stability within a well-established, respected manufacturer
