Electrically Biased Engineer – Hull
If you’ve been around engineering teams for any length of time, you’ll know there are two types of places to work:
- The ones that burn you out, chew you up and then wonder why no one stays.
- The ones that actually invest in their people, treat them like adults, and don’t think “training budget” means sending you on a 2-hour PowerPoint session about “team synergy.”
The company I’m recruiting for is firmly in the second camp.
They’ve got the kit, the budget to keep it running, and a track record of keeping engineers happy. They don’t rely on free fruit bowls to retain staff - they rely on decent pay, proper training, and managers who actually understand the job.
What they need you to bring:
- A strong electrical bias (with enough mechanical know-how to not call an electrician for every loose bolt)
- Experience in a manufacturing or FMCG environment
- The ability to think beyond “patch it and hope for the best”
- A calm head when things go sideways
What the role actually involves:
- Looking after a well-run site in Hull
- Preventative and reactive maintenance — with a bias towards prevention
- Working alongside a team that actually talks to each other (and sometimes even laughs)
- Using decent tools and equipment that aren’t older than you are
- Being listened to when you suggest improvements
If you’re fed up with firefighting every day for a company that won’t change, this one’s already done most of the changing.
