We're working with a long-established manufacturing business near Tiverton operating within a continuous process environment. This is a smaller, close-knit site with a strong team culture, offering a more relaxed and flexible working environment than many larger FMCG operations.
Due to continued investment, the business is looking to recruit either an Electrical Maintenance Engineer.

* Fault finding on electrical systems and production equipment.
* Supporting installations, projects and plant improvements.
* Coordinating contractors and overseeing work carried out on site.
* Assisting with maintenance planning and reliability improvements.
Machinery & Environment
* Continuous process machinery including paper machines, rollers and conveyors.
* Three-phase systems, motors, drives, panels and control systems.
* PLC-controlled equipment (fault-finding level).
* A mixture of legacy and newer plant.
* General site services and infrastructure.
What They're Looking For
Electrical Maintenance Engineer
* Electrically biased maintenance background.
* Experience within manufacturing, process or industrial environments.
* Confident fault finding on three-phase systems, motors, drives and panels.
* Able to work independently and support continuous improvement activities.
What's on Offer
* Electrical Maintenance Engineer salary circa £42,000.
* Monday to Friday days (no shift) role with flexible hours.
* No nights.
* 1 in 4 call-out rota, although call-outs are rare and typically resolved over the phone.
* Stable, long-established business with a supportive culture.
* Genuine opportunity to influence engineering standards and the future direction of the department.
If you're an experienced Electrical Engineer looking to move away from shifts and seeking a more balanced role, this is an opportunity to join a well-established business where you'll have the autonomy to make a real difference.
