Multi-Skilled Engineer

Description:

Multi-Skilled Engineer (Food Manufacturing)
Attleborough, Norfolk
£53,000
Double Days Shift Pattern

This is a family-owned food manufacturing business with a small, close-knit engineering team and none of the usual corporate noise.

The engineering function is led by a strong Engineering Manager who knows what good looks like and gives people the space to get on with the job properly.

They're not chasing a perfect CV. They're looking for a good engineer from a food or similar production background who wants to get stuck in and be part of a team that actually works together.

What you'll be doing

Carrying out planned preventative maintenance (PPM) across production equipment
Responding to breakdowns and getting lines back up and running quickly
Diagnosing and repairing electrical and mechanical faults
Supporting continuous production and reducing downtime
Working closely with production to resolve issues properly
Completing maintenance records and supporting site systems
Contributing to general improvement and reliability activity

What we're looking for

Multi-skilled engineering background
Experience in food manufacturing or similar production environment
Confident fault-finding across electrical and mechanical systems
Experience with PPM and reactive maintenance
Positive attitude and willingness to get involved
Comfortable working within a small team where everyone pulls their weight
Strong awareness of health and safety

The reality of the role

This is not a layered, process-heavy environment.

It's a smaller site where people know each other, decisions happen quickly, and engineers are trusted to do their job without being buried in unnecessary systems.

If you want structure, autonomy and a team that actually functions without politics, it's a good place to be. If you need corporate layers and endless sign-off processes, you'll find it a bit too straightforward
