This is a great opportunity to step into a delivery-focused role on a regulated manufacturing site with major plans for growth. The facility produces pharmaceutical products for agricultural use, with complex powder-based processes like mixing, fermenting, steaming and drying. Turnover is set to almost double, with capital projects at the heart of that transformation.

As Project Engineer, you’ll lead a wide range of engineering projects from scoping and funding through to commissioning and handover. You’ll work across disciplines, managing suppliers and contractors, and act as a technical contact point for the wider site. Projects typically range from £50K to £2M in value and support everything from compliance upgrades to capacity expansion and plant improvement.

What you’ll be doing

  • Delivering end-to-end capital projects across manufacturing and utilities
  • Working closely with stakeholders in operations, engineering, EHS and quality
  • Managing scope, costs, scheduling and procurement using internal systems (e.g. SAP)
  • Overseeing contractor activity and ensuring safe on-site execution
  • Supporting commissioning, validation and turnover to operations
  • Providing technical input and supporting compliance with COMAH and site engineering standards
  • Helping maintain project documentation and ensuring audit readiness

What you’ll need

  • Engineering degree (mechanical, electrical, chemical or similar)
  • Project delivery experience in a manufacturing or process environment
  • Strong organisational and stakeholder management skills
  • Understanding of regulated, safety-critical sites (e.g. pharma, COMAH, chemicals)
  • Chartered status is a bonus but not essential
  • Comfortable working on a busy, active site with a mix of office and plant work

What you’ll get

  • £45,000 to £57,000 depending on experience
  • 10% bonus 
  • 37.5 hour working week with flexible hours (10am to 4pm core time)
  • Hybrid working available (home working on an ad hoc basis)
  • 25 days holiday plus bank holidays (increasing with length of service up to 28 days)
  • Option to buy or sell additional holidays
  • Pension: 10% employer contribution, plus up to an additional 3% employer match if you contribute a further 3%
  • Private medical cover through Bupa
  • Life insurance at 8x base salary (flexible up or down)
  • Ill health income protection cover
  • Access to further flexible benefits through the company benefits platform
