If you’re the kind of person who gets excited by perfectly colour-coded spreadsheets and endless "strategy meetings", this probably isn’t for you.

But if you’ve spent real time in the guts of a maintenance operation- wrench in one hand, plan in the other- you’ll get why this role matters.

This is a big site. 10+ acres of heavy kit, constant production, and not much room for error. You’ll be leading the team that keeps it all running- planning, fixing, upgrading, and making sure it doesn’t all go sideways when a pump decides to call it a day.

Salary: £59,000
Shifts: Regular Days

Here’s what we’re actually looking for:

  • Someone who knows how to lead without shouting

  • Can turn chaos into a planned shutdown

  • Doesn’t flinch at KPIs, compliance, or audits

  • Has the confidence to stand in for the Maintenance Manager

  • And maybe most importantly- can spot a maintenance issue before it becomes a production disaster

You’ll be running a Planning team, a Machine Shop, and all the predictable (and unpredictable) stuff that comes with a fast-moving, mechanically intense operation. You’ll be shaping how maintenance is done- not just firefighting when things go wrong.

Yes, there’s training and development. Yes, there’s a strong team already in place. And yes, the site is backed by a global business with serious ambition.

You?

  • HNC/HND in Mechanical Engineering or something similar

  • Strong background in production or manufacturing (not just theory—real stuff)

  • Comfortable dealing with complexity and pressure

  • Proven leadership experience

  • Someone who can influence, improve, and deliver

If you’re looking for a maintenance role where you can genuinely make a difference this one’s worth a look.
