Job Role of the Engineering Team Leader

An exciting opportunity has become available for an Engineering Team Leader to take ownership of the engineering function on shift at a busy heavy industrial manufacturing site.

You will coordinate breakdown response, organise planned preventative maintenance and ensure the engineering workload is prioritised around production requirements.
