Shift Engineer (Electrical Bias) - £51,000 - Lichfield
Panama Shift Pattern - 12-hour days & nights, rotating

If you like the idea of keeping a factory full of shiny new kit running - and don't mind occasionally swearing at it when it stops - read on.

This is an electrical bias role, but you'll still need to get your hands dirty with the mechanical side. It's a mix of planned maintenance and “it's just broken, fix it now” moments. The good news? You'll be working in a site that's had serious investment in equipment and technology, so you won't be spending all day coaxing antiques back to life.

The work:

Keep production equipment running.

Fix breakdowns quickly (downtime is expensive and nobody likes it).

Do the planned maintenance that stops things breaking in the first place.

Help with start-ups, testing, and fine-tuning.

Log everything properly so nobody's guessing what happened.

What you'll need:

An NVQ Level 3 or City & Guilds Level 3 in Engineering (or equivalent apprenticeship).

Strong electrical skills, with decent mechanical knowledge too.

Manufacturing experience - food is a bonus, not a deal-breaker.

A proactive, safety-first approach.

What's in it for you:

£51k salary.

23 days' holiday (goes up with service) + buy more if you want.

Free staff transport from Lichfield, Burton, Cannock, Rugeley & Burntwood.

Life Assurance - 3x salary.

24/7 access to GP, mental health support, and legal advice.

Tailored training & development - because getting better at your job should be part of the job.

Discounts, gym/bike schemes, recognition awards… the usual perks.
