This is a fantastic opportunity for someone with a strong engineering and maintenance background who enjoys leading teams, improving maintenance and engineering structures and driving operational performance.
The Role:
Manage and support shift-based engineering and maintenance teams in a days-based role.
Lead and develop a team of 4 direct reports.
Oversee maintenance activities across a process plant, including pumps, pipework, vessels and associated equipment.
Work closely with site management and the wider engineering team to ensure equipment reliability and minimise downtime.
Review existing maintenance structures and processes, identifying opportunities for improvement.
What We're Looking For:
Previous experience in an Engineering Manager, Maintenance Manager or similar leadership role.
