Multi Skilled Engineer

As the Multi Skilled Engineer you will be tasked with the following;

• Conduct planned preventative maintenance (PPM) to minimise downtime and extend asset life.
• Diagnose and repair mechanical, electrical, pneumatic, and basic automation faults.
• Carry out reactive maintenance swiftly to restore production with minimal disruption.
• Ensure all engineering work complies with site standards, safety regulations, and statutory requirements.
• Maintain accurate maintenance records, logs, and asset histories.
• Provide hands‑on engineering support to production teams during line start‑ups, changeovers, and shutdowns.
• Optimise machine settings and parameters to improve throughput, reduce waste, and maintain product quality.
• Monitor line performance data to identify bottlenecks and implement corrective actions.
• Support root‑cause analysis (RCA) for recurring issues and drive permanent solutions.
• Lead or contribute to CI initiatives such as Lean, Six Sigma, TPM, or SMED.
• Identify opportunities to improve equipment reliability, reduce downtime, and enhance OEE.
• Participate in engineering projects, upgrades, and equipment installations.
• Recommend and implement modifications to improve safety, efficiency, or maintainability.
• Ensure engineering activities support product quality standards and GMP requirements.
• Collaborate with Quality teams to investigate and resolve quality‑related equipment issues.
• Maintain hygiene and housekeeping standards in line with food standards.
• Promote a strong safety culture and ensure compliance with site H&S policies.
• Conduct risk assessments, permit‑to‑work processes, and safe isolation procedures.
• Identify and escalate hazards, near misses, and unsafe conditions.
• Support environmental sustainability initiatives through energy‑efficient engineering practices.
• Provide coaching and technical guidance to operators to build capability and reduce engineering interventions.
• Communicate effectively during handovers, shift briefs, and incident reviews.
• Use CMMS systems to log work orders, track performance, and manage spare parts.
• Support audits (internal, customer, regulatory) by providing engineering documentation and evidence.
• Contribute to engineering KPIs such as OEE, MTBF, MTTR, and maintenance compliance.
