Drive equipment reliability strategies, including improved preventative maintenance (PPM) and asset performance
Conduct root cause analysis (RCA) and implement long-term corrective actions
Analyse performance data to identify trends, losses, and efficiency opportunities

Essential

Proven experience in process engineering, manufacturing engineering, or continuous improvement roles
Demonstrable track record of improving equipment performance, reducing downtime, or delivering measurable CI outcomes
Strong capability in root cause analysis (RCA) and data-led problem solving

Experience working with equipment reliability, performance optimisation, and preventative maintenance strategies (PPM)
Strong communication skills with the ability to influence and collaborate across teams
High attention to detail with a proactive, improvement-focused approach
Good understanding of health & safety and food safety standards (IOSH or equivalent)

Desirable

Experience in high-volume manufacturing or FMCG / food production environments
Knowledge of continuous improvement methodologies (Lean, Six Sigma, TPM, RCM)
Experience working with OEE, downtime analysis, and performance metrics
Exposure to process trials, process development, or new product introduction (NPI)
Experience with automated production or packaging equipment (e.g. flow wrappers)
Engineering qualification (HNC/HND) or apprenticeship background
Basic understanding of PLC systems and HACCP principles

Rewards Benefits:

25 days + bank holidays annual holiday entitlement
4% employer and 5 % employee pension plan
Life assurance plan x4 basic salary
Various salary sacrifice schemes including pension payments, cycle to work and electric car (subject to meeting minimum criteria)
Healthcare cash plan via paycare (Dental, Optical, Chiropody, Professional Therapy, Counselling) with a value over £400 each year

About Us:
