  • Maintain accurate maintenance records and shift handovers.
  • Promote 5S standards and continuous improvement across the department.

Ideally you'll have experience with:

  • Electrical and/or electronic maintenance
  • Fault finding on automated production equipment
  • Planned preventative maintenance (PPM)

  • Working with CMMS or maintenance management systems
  • Continuous improvement and reliability initiatives

Experience within semiconductor, electronics, pharmaceutical, food & drink, FMCG, medical device, automotive or other highly automated manufacturing environments would be highly advantageous.

  • Competitive salary
  • Shift allowance
  • Comprehensive benefits package
  • Ongoing technical training and development
  • Exposure to world-class semiconductor manufacturing technology
  • Long-term career progression with a global organisation
