4 on, 4 off | Days and Nights | Real Engineering. Not Keyboard Warrior Work.

If you enjoy watching contractors do your job slower and worse than you would've done it yourself, this isn't the job for you.

This role is hands-on. No clipboard. No corporate nonsense. Just solid engineering work keeping a busy site running, improving, and not falling to bits.

You'll be part of a team that actually does the job, not just talks about doing it. You'll be working on heavy industrial kit - motors, hydraulics, boilers, the good stuff - diagnosing problems, fixing faults, and improving the plant while you're at it.

This isn't a "reactive maintenance" gig where you're chasing your tail all day. There's proper PPM work, project input, shutdown/start-up cover, and the expectation that if something's wrong, you don't wait to be told to sort it.

The role:

Continental shifts: 2 days, 2 nights, then 4 off (12-hour shifts)
Diagnose and repair faults on plant machinery (not just turn it off and on again)
Work on mechanical and electrical systems - you'll need to be properly multi-skilled
Support site improvement projects - not just bodge jobs to get it through the shift
Keep safety and housekeeping high - because greasy rags and trip hazards don't make you a better engineer
You'll need:

Proper engineering experience - heavy kit, hydraulics, motors, steam systems
Mechanical AND electrical skills (if you've only got one, expect to learn the other)
A qualification - BTEC or equivalent is fine, but if you've got the experience, we're listening
The ability to get stuck in, solve problems, and work as part of a no-nonsense team

You'll be working closely with the Shift Plant Engineer and a solid bunch of internal stakeholders. You'll also be dealing with external contractors - ideally making sure they don't slow things down too much.

The company?
They're specific in their industry. So it's a serious job, with serious kit, and safety standards to match.

You'll be expected to take responsibility, think for yourself, and be the kind of engineer who doesn't need a babysitter.

If that sounds like you, apply now. If not? Probably best you scroll on
