Maintenance Engineer - Days

Job: Multi-Skilled Engineer
Location: Loughborough area
Salary: £46,000 + £6,000 call-out allowance
Shift: 4 on / 4 off (days) + call-out rota
You know that feeling when you walk onto a site and half the machines sound like they’re on their last legs?
Yeah, that won’t be the case here.
That’s not to say you won’t have breakdowns to fix – you will. But there’s a proper maintenance schedule in place. You’ll actually get time to do preventative work rather than just running from one emergency to the next.
You’ll be part of a small team of 4 engineers (2 on shift at any given time), with an Engineering Manager who, importantly, still remembers what it’s like to do the job.
The work is varied – electrical and mechanical – but we’re looking for someone who’s strongest on the electrical side. Time-served or qualified, with experience in a manufacturing or industrial environment. If you’ve worked in food, feed, or anything remotely similar, that’s a bonus.
The shift is 4 on / 4 off, all days. And yes, there’s a call-out rota – 2 out of every 4 blocks – but that comes with an extra £6k on top of your salary, plus a work phone.
What you’ll get:
£46,000 base salary + £6,000 call-out allowance
4 on / 4 off days only (work-life balance, remember that?)
Work phone provided
A stable, supportive team who actually talk to each other
The chance to work somewhere that isn’t constantly firefighting
If you like fixing things properly instead of patching them up until the next breakdown, this might be the one worth a conversation.
