Maintenance Engineer - Days
Submit your CV and any additional required information after you have read this description by clicking on the application button.
South Cumbria
Base Salary: Up to £40,000 per annum, depending on experience
Days: Monday to Friday - No Regular Weekend Working
SimWest Engineering Recruitment is working with an established manufacturing business in South Cumbria to recruit a Maintenance Engineer for its site engineering team.
This is a hands-on maintenance position within a long-established manufacturing site that operates as part of a wider UK manufacturing group.
The business has seen increased order levels and is continuing to strengthen its engineering capability, creating an opportunity for an experienced Maintenance Engineer to join a small, close-knit team.
THE ROLE
You will work as part of the site engineering function, supporting the reliability and performance of production machinery and equipment.
The role will involve a mixture of planned maintenance, breakdown support and engineering improvement work.
Your responsibilities will include:
Carrying out planned and preventative maintenance
Responding to machinery breakdowns
Fault finding and repairing production equipment
Supporting machinery reliability and reducing downtime
Completing routine engineering inspections
Supporting site-based engineering projects
Assisting with machinery improvements and modifications
Working closely with production to resolve engineering issues
Helping maintain a safe and well-organised engineering environment
Because this is a relatively small engineering team, you will have plenty of variety in the role and will be encouraged to take ownership of engineering problems rather than being restricted to one particular area of maintenance.
ABOUT YOU
We are looking for a practical Maintenance Engineer with experience working within a manufacturing or production environment.
You will ideally have:
Previous maintenance experience within manufacturing
Experience carrying out planned and reactive maintenance
Good fault-finding and problem-solving skills
Experience working with production machinery
A practical, hands-on approach to maintenance
The ability to work independently as well as part of a small engineering team
A recognised engineering qualification or apprenticeship would be advantageous
THE COMPANY
The company is an established manufacturing business with a long history in the South Cumbria area.
The site manufactures high-volume products for a broad customer base and operates as part of a wider UK manufacturing group.
Despite being part of a larger organisation, the site retains a close-knit working environment.
The company has a supportive culture, with engineering and production working closely together to keep the operation running effectively.
For someone looking for a stable engineering position where they can become an important part of a small maintenance team, this represents a very good opportunity.
PACKAGE, LOCATION & WORKING PATTERN
Base Salary: Up to £40,000 per annum, depending on experience
Hours: Days – Monday to Friday
Weekends: No regular weekend working
Location: South Cumbria
If you are an experienced Maintenance Engineer looking for a days-based position within a supportive manufacturing environment, we would be interested in hearing from you.
