Job Introduction

Senior Engineer – Electrical Bias
Full-time role with a rotating weekly shift pattern
Earlies/lates (0600-1400 / 1400-2200), every 5th Friday off

GMP Manufacturing, Skipton
If you’re the kind of engineer who thrives on solving complex problems, keeping high‑performance equipment running at its best, and being the technical go‑to person on site, this role will feel like home. As our Senior Engineer, you’ll blend hands‑on expertise with technical leadership, helping to drive reliability, compliance, and continuous improvement across a fast‑paced, GMP‑regulated environment.

What the role looks like day‑to‑day
You’ll play a central part in shaping the performance of our production assets—particularly where electrical systems, controls, and automation are concerned. From optimising PPM schedules to leading root‑cause investigations, you’ll be the person others turn to when equipment needs to run smarter, safer, and more efficiently. Your influence will stretch beyond the tools too: you’ll support the Maintenance Manager, guide engineers and technicians, and help ensure the site is always inspection‑ready.

Every day brings variety. One moment you’ll be responding to a breakdown and validating line performance post‑repair; the next, you’ll be overseeing calibration activities, closing out QMS actions, or collaborating with Production and QA to keep operations flowing smoothly. You’ll also champion continuous improvement—spotting opportunities, driving change, and helping us push reliability and performance to new levels.

This is a role for someone who enjoys taking ownership, making decisions, and leading by example. Someone who values safety, precision, and high standards. And someone ready to step up when needed, including deputising for the Maintenance Manager.

A little about us
Dechra is a growing global specialist in veterinary pharmaceuticals. Our expertise is in the development, manufacture, marketing and sales of high-quality products exclusively for veterinarians worldwide. It’s a great time to join our modern Skipton facility, and further investment for the Skipton site means that we’re in an exciting period of positive change for the business.

Here at Dechra, our values are embedded within our culture and thrive within our family of almost 2000 colleagues globally. From manufacturing to marketing, (D)edication, (E)njoyment, (C)ourage, (H)onesty, (R)elationships and (A)mbition are at the heart of our everyday operations and the way we do business.

We are Dechra, a growing, global specialist in veterinary pharmaceuticals. Our expertise is in the development, manufacture, marketing and sales of high-quality products exclusively for veterinarians worldwide.

Essential Skills & Experience

Electrical bias with strong troubleshooting capability
Familiar with production equipment such as filling lines, conveyors, packaging lines, autoclaves, tablet presses, granulators, WFI systems, and heat sterilisers
Strong planning and organising skills
Excellent communication skills (verbal, written, listening)
Time‑served engineer (Electrical 60% Mechanical 40%)
Minimum 5 years’ experience in an engineering or maintenance environment

Desirable Skills & Experience

Experience leading RCA and implementing long‑term corrective actions
Background in GMP or other regulated environments

Why you’ll love it here
We provide veterinary professionals with the tools to support the welfare of animals worldwide. A true career with real purpose, that’s something you can proudly shout about.

We also care deeply about our employees; you’ll have full access to our Employee Assistance programme (EAP), which ensures you have confidential emotional, physical and financial wellbeing support 24/7, 365. This ensures that you are well-equipped to deal with life’s many challenges. In addition to this, we also offer:

Healthcare Cash plan (covers the cost of dental, prescriptions, therapies)
Headspace App (positive mental wellbeing app, up to 5 users per account)
Discounted Gym Membership
Cycle to work scheme
Discount on pet food
Free fruit Mondays
Free on-site parking (including free electric charging)
22.5 days annual leave + Bank Holidays
Option to buy a week’s holiday each year
8% Employer pension contribution

What’s next?
We’ll take care of you from here on. Firstly, thank you for taking the time to express interest in this opportunity and Dechra. If you’re interested, please apply in the first instance.

We take pride in ensuring you have a positive experience with Dechra and the recruitment process. Our team are friendly and approachable. We won’t ghost you…..we’ll always provide updates and feedback regardless of the outcome. If you haven’t heard from us, just give us a nudge.

What’s the interview process?
Typically, you’ll receive an initial phone call from the recruitment team to understand more about you and your current work situation. Most of our roles have a two-stage interview process (MS Teams and a face-to-face interview). We may ask you to complete a personality questionnaire ahead of time so that we can learn a little more about you ahead of the interview.

Our interview style is conversational and friendly. In addition to this, we always look for competency-based, structured answers to our questions, so feel free to prepare ahead of the interview.
