Maintenance Engineer
Cambridgeshire
Monday-Friday, DAYS ONLY
Expected Earnings Over £50,000
Get Off Shifts. Get Your Evenings Back. Enjoy a Better Work-Life Balance.
The Collective Network are supporting a well-established food manufacturing group with over a century of industry presence and a strong reputation for quality, development, and continuous improvement.
This opportunity is ideal for engineers who are ready to step away from shift patterns and move into a stable days-based engineering role with long-term career prospects and a genuinely supportive culture.
Why This Role Stands Out
Straight days - no nights, no rotating shifts
A culture focused on developing people & investing in site improvements
Overtime paid at x1.5
Opportunity to work in a small, collaborative team where you can make an impact
The Role
You'll join a small but skilled engineering team on a busy food manufacturing site, taking ownership of preventative maintenance, reactive engineering support, and equipment improvements across a range of electro-mechanical assets.
Key responsibilities include:
Delivering periodic & condition-based PPM on production equipment
Quick and efficient fault-finding and breakdown response
Fabricating and machining parts (lathe, milling, welding)
Supporting CI projects and operational improvements
Working with the Operations team to maximise equipment performance
Ongoing training and development to maintain professional competence
There will be an on-call requirement which will include a standby charge and increased rate if called out.
What You'll Bring
Level 3 Engineering qualification (Electrical/Mechanical)
Strong mechanical & electrical fault-finding ability
Ability to read mechanical and electrical drawings
Confident with fabrication and machining techniques
Able to work at height and in confined spaces
Understanding of hydraulics, pneumatics & motion control
Want a Better Work-Life Balance?
If you're an engineer who's ready to get off shifts, reclaim your evenings, and join a business where you can grow, this is a role worth exploring
