Role Overview:

This role has a dual focus:

1. Provide day-to-day support for moulding equipment controls, software, and systems to ensure production continuity.

Lead the site’s journey into automation, driving improvements in safety, efficiency, quality, and compliance

You will play a key role in developing and delivering our automation strategy, while ensuring existing systems remain reliable, validated, and compliant with ISO9001 and other global standards.

Key Responsibilities:

Controls & Support

Provide rapid response to breakdowns, ensuring permanent resolutions are implemented.

Maintain site control of all software, system specifications, and version control.

Automation & Innovation

Specify, design, and implement new automation solutions for rubber moulding processes.

Lead automation projects from concept to validation, including supplier engagement, FAT/SAT, and handover to operations.

Develop machine-to-system connectivity (MES/ERP/SCADA) to enhance traceability, data capture, and compliance.

Compliance & Validation

Conduct software and process validation for new and existing equipment in line with ISO9001 and other regulatory standards.

Ensure all changes follow robust change control and are fully documented for audit readiness.

Continuous Improvement

A Proactive mindset in order to deliver process improvements to increase OEE, reduce waste, and strengthen product quality.

Identify risks from obsolescence and lead mitigation or upgrade programs.

Share knowledge and upskill colleagues to build internal capability in automation and controls.

What We’re Looking For:

Familiarity with rubber/plastics moulding processes (desirable).

Strong understanding of control systems, networks, and HMIs.

Knowledge of software lifecycle management and change control.

Strong organisational skills with the ability to communicate effectively at all levels.

Balance of hands-on support and long-term project delivery.

A flexible approach to working hours.
