Full job description

We're looking for an Automated Packing Machine Engineer to keep our automated packing and sorter machines running safely, reliably and at full output. You'll be first on scene when a machine faults or fails - diagnosing the problem quickly, fixing it where you can, and escalating when you can't, so downtime is kept to a minimum and the operation keeps moving.

Alongside reactive fault response, you'll plan and carry out scheduled maintenance and cleaning to keep the machines in optimum condition, reducing the change of breakdowns in the first place.

Location: On site at our Fulfilment Centre in Northampton

Working Hours: 10am - 6pm, Monday to Friday with flexibility required

Who are we?

At J&J Global Fulfilment we help hundreds of eCommerce brands grow and scale globally. Our team is fast, supportive and proud of the work we do. We believe in teamwork, respect, safety, and celebrating success together. Following a merger at the end of 2025 with QLS Group we are building on our established presence in the UK, Europe, and the USA.

Why work for us?

Salary: £40K - £50K depending on experience
25 days holiday plus bank holidays
up to 5% matched pension
Enhanced sick pay
Enhanced maternity pay
Mental Health Support - we have a team of trained Mental Health First Aiders, to support you when you may need it
Life assurance
Paid volunteering opportunities
Summer and Christmas parties

What you'll be doing...

Acting as first responder to fault alerts and machine errors on automated packing and sorter lines, diagnosing the issue and restoring safe running as quickly as possible
Carrying out hands-on repairs on mechanical, electrical and PLC- controlled faults
Escalating faults you can't resolve yourself to our Site Services Manager or the machine vendor, with clear, accurate fault detail so the right help arrives first time
Following safe working procedures around moving machinery, conveyors and electrical systems at all times
Logging every fault and repair accurately, so recurring issues can be identified and designed out
Carrying out planned preventative maintenance, inspections and basic servicing on packing machines to a set schedule
Managing spares and consumables stock for common faults, so repairs can happen on the spot rather than waiting on parts
Following documented maintenance scheduled, SOPs and safety checklists
Monitoring machine status hour by hour during your shift and reporting anything affecting throughput to the Head of Operations immediately
Liaising with the Operations teams to keep them updated on equipment status and expected repair times
Supporting the Site Services Manager with wider site maintenance activity, including MHE servicing and call-outs, compactor and baler maintenance, and insurance inspections

What you'll bring...

A background in mechanical and / or electrical maintenance - apprenticeship, NVQ / BTEC, military technical grade, or equivalent hands-on experience
Experience with PLC- controlled automation and fault diagnosis in a contiuous process or production environment
Relevant experience with material handling, flow, capacity visualisation and monitoring
A solid grasp of how automated conveyor, packing or sortation equipment works - or the ability to pick up new machines quickly
Confidence reading electrical and mechanical drawings, schematics and equipment manuals
Safe, confident use of hand tools, basic disagnotic equipment and PPE
Comfort working in a fast-paced fulfilment / warehouse environment, often under time pressure
Clear written and verbal communication
A COSHH certification is highly desirable

If you're shortlisted, you'll have a screening call with Steph, our Talent Manager
