How our sorting works

The order in which job vacancies are displayed is determined by a composite score based on the following factors:

  • Keyword Relevance: How well your search terms match the vacancy details. We prioritize matches found in the job title, followed by job requirements, location names, and educational levels. Matches within general employer information or the organization's name carry a lower weight.
  • Commercial Prioritization (Premium Jobs): Vacancies paid for by employers ('Premium' or 'Sponsored') receive a ranking boost and will appear higher in the search results.
  • Recency (Date Relevance): Newer vacancies are prioritized. The relevance score of a vacancy is reduced by half once the posting is older than 30 days.
  • Proximity (Distance Relevance): Vacancies located closer to your search location are ranked higher. For vacancies located more than 30 km from the search center, the relevance score is halved.
The final ranking is established by multiplying all these individual factors to calculate the total relevance score.

    Job description

    Multi-Skilled Shift Engineer (Nights)
    Salary: £61,000
    Shift Pattern: 7 shifts in 14, nights only (similar to a Panama pattern)
    Commutable from: Peterborough, Stamford, Spalding, March, Huntingdon, Wisbech, Corby, etc.

    Our client is a well-established food manufacturing business based in Peterborough, supplying major retailers across the UK. Due to continued growth, they're looking to add a Multi-Skilled Shift Engineer to their night team, on an excellent shift pattern that gives you more family time than a standard rotation.

    The Role

    Carry out planned and reactive maintenance across high-speed production and packaging equipment
    Fault find and repair electrical and mechanical breakdowns to minimise downtime
    Work a night shift pattern of 7 shifts in 14 (similar to a Panama pattern), with 7 off in return
    Work closely with production to support continuous improvement across the site
    Maintain accurate maintenance records and ensure work is completed in line with food safety standards

    What We're Looking For

    A recognised engineering qualification (NVQ Level 3, HNC, or equivalent apprenticeship)
    Multi-skilled background - electrical or mechanical bias considered, but competent across both
    Experience within FMCG, food manufacturing, or a similarly fast-paced production environment
    Happy working permanent nights on a 7 in 14 shift pattern
    A proactive, hands-on approach with strong fault-finding skills

    What's On Offer

    £61,000 basic salary
    Permanent nights, 7 shifts in 14 days.
    Genuine progression opportunities within a growing, established business
    Commutable from Peterborough, Stamford, Spalding, March, Huntingdon and Wisbech

    If you're a Multi-Skilled Shift Engineer looking for a strong salary on permanent nights, with a shift pattern that gives you more life outside of work, we'd love to hear from you. Apply now or contact Oli for a confidential conversation.
