Location: Billingham
Salary: £59,500 including shift allowance + regular overtime available
Hours: Continental shift pattern

The Opportunity
We're looking for an experienced Multi-Skilled Maintenance Engineer to join a busy engineering team within a well-established heavy manufacturing environment.
Working a continental shift pattern, you'll play a key role in keeping plant and equipment running safely and reliably, responding to breakdowns, completing planned maintenance and carrying out installation work across electrical and mechanical systems.
This is a genuinely hands-on position for an engineer who enjoys fault-finding, problem-solving and working with industrial plant rather than spending their shift staring at a maintenance spreadsheet.
With a package of £59,500 including shift allowance plus regular overtime opportunities, this could be an excellent move for an experienced maintenance engineer looking for a technically varied role within a large-scale manufacturing operation.
What You'll Be Doing

Carrying out planned, preventative and reactive maintenance across plant and equipment.
Diagnosing faults logically and completing repairs effectively to minimise downtime.
Carrying out electrical installation work where required.
Supporting the maintenance and management of site electrical and control systems.
Working with PLC and plant control systems.
Ensuring maintenance activities meet relevant electrical, mechanical and safety compliance requirements.
Completing appropriate risk assessments before undertaking work.
Recording planned and reactive maintenance activity accurately.
Liaising with and supporting third-party contractors working on site.
Working closely with engineering, production and other stakeholders across the business.
Supporting the wider maintenance team in improving plant reliability and performance.What We're Looking For
You'll need:
A recognised apprenticeship in Mechanical or Electrical Maintenance, or an equivalent engineering qualification.
Previous hands-on maintenance experience within an industrial, manufacturing, process or heavy engineering environment.
Strong electrical and/or mechanical fault-finding ability.
Experience diagnosing and responding to plant and machinery breakdowns.
Good understanding of planned and reactive maintenance.
The ability to work safely and methodically within an industrial environment.
Good communication and interpersonal skills.
Basic computer literacy.
The confidence to work both independently and as part of an engineering team.Knowledge of PLCs and plant control systems would be particularly advantageous.
