- Prcess improvements to enhance quality, safety, and output
- Develpment and optimisation of the maintenance programme to improve reliability
Support the installation, commissioning, and improvement of new and existing equipment
Work on equipment such as roll plant, mixers, ovens, provers, conveyors and fryers
Assist with basic electrical fault-finding as part of a multi-skilled team
Ensure all engineering activity meets food safety, health & safety, and compliance standards
Accurately record maintenance activity using our CMMS system and support data-driven improvement initiatives

About You

Time-served Mechanical Engineer or equivalent qualification
Strong mechanical maintenance experience, ideally within bakery, food manufacturing, or FMCG
Interest in continuous improvement and engineering-led problem solving
Basic electrical knowledge advantageous
Comfortable working in a fast-paced production environment
Proactive, organised, and keen to help shape how maintenance is delivered
A safety-first mindset that promotes and embraces safe systems of work
Excellent communication skills with the ability to communicate clearly and confidently
Good level of IT skills with experience in a CMMS platform
Flexible approach to working hours and site support

What We Offer

Competitive salary, dependent on experience
A secure, permanent role within a well-established and growing family business
The opportunity to be part of a new and dynamic engineering team, with real influence over how systems, processes, and standards are developed
Involvement in exciting expansion and improvement projects
Colleague discount scheme, offering up to 50% discount
Company pension and holiday entitlement
Ongoing development and the chance to grow with the business
