Maintenance Engineer Late Shift £30k; Kent

Posted by km on Jun 4, 2014 in All Sectors | 0 comments

 We are seeking to recruit an Electrically biased Maintenance Engineer to support the production team at a high volume chilled food manufacturing business on the late shift.  This is an opportunity to work with a large scale food manufacturer  within a truly fast paced and high volume manufacturing environment.  The business operates with the UK Food industry providing a range of Branded and Private Label chilled and frozen products to the UK Grocery retail market.  Having a strongly customer driven approach has enabled the business to develop long term relationships with some of the UK’s leading grocery retailers which in turn ahs led to significant growth and business expansion.

As a Maintenance Engineer based on the late shift you will operate in conjunction with the Engineering Manager and Operation Manager to ensure the automated equipment runs at an optimum.  This is a fantastic opportunity to work on a Monday – Friday late shift that would enable you to have time during the day for other activities – such as doing both school runs!

As an apprentice trained engineer you will ideally have an electrical bias or be a mechanical engineer who also holds C&G 16^th Edition or ideally 17^th Edition.  You will already have gained experience of supporting a high volume manufacturing operation and have a progressive and pro-active approach to engineering services.  Working with highly automated plant equipment engineering as a function would be a distinct advantage as would previous experience with a food or drink environment.   In addition to your apprenticeship and time served experience you will ideally have experience of working with PLCs and have a strong appreciation of lean manufacturing.
