As our Senior Engineer, you'll blend hands-on expertise with technical leadership, helping to drive reliability, compliance, and continuous improvement across a fast-paced, GMP-regulated environment. What the role looks like day-to-day You'll play a central part in shaping the performance of our production assets-particularly where electrical systems, controls, and automation are concerned. From optimising PPM schedules to leading root-cause investigations, you'll be the person others turn to when equipment needs to run smarter, safer, and more efficiently. Your influence will stretch beyond the tools too: you'll support the Maintenance Manager, guide engineers and technicians, and help ensure the site is always inspection-ready. Every day brings variety. One moment you'll be responding to a breakdown and validating line performance post-repair; the next, you'll be overseeing calibration activities, closing out QMS actions, or collaborating with Production and QA to keep operations flowing smoothly. You'll also champion continuous improvement-spotting opportunities, driving change, and helping us push reliability and performance to new levels. This is a role for someone who enjoys taking ownership, making decisions, and leading by example. Someone who values safety, precision, and high standards. And someone ready to step up when needed, including deputising for the Maintenance Manager. A little about us Dechra is a growing global specialist in veterinary pharmaceuticals.
