What You’ll Be Doing

*

Getting stuck into both planned and reactive maintenance across electrical and mechanical kit – motors, drives, PLCs, pumps, pneumatics – the lot.

*

Fault-finding and repairs that keep downtime to a minimum (you’ll know how much that matters on shift).

*

Working to a proper PPM schedule and helping improve plant reliability.

*

Reading schematics and wiring diagrams without breaking stride.

*

Teaming up with operators, fellow engineers and contractors to get things sorted safely and efficiently.

*

Handing over cleanly at the end of shift so everyone knows where things stand.

*

You’re confident fault-finding on electrical systems and PLCs.

You’re up for both days and nights – teamwork’s key here.
(Experience with Heidelberg, Manroland, or Bobst kit would be a bonus, but not essential.)
