I’ll be honest, this is one of those roles that will either massively appeal to someone… or completely put them off.
Because this isn’t a “sit in the office and watch contractors” type of facilities role
.
And it’s not a pure production engineer role eithe
r.
This business needs someone who can properly own the si
te.
Someone who can walk into a factory, spot problems before they become breakdowns, challenge standards, manage contractors properly, keep on top of PMs/admin AND still be hands on when nee
ded.
You’ll be covering things
like:
• HVAC• Electrical s
ystems• Site infrastr
ucture• Cold
stores• Packing hall s
upport• Facilities pr
ojects• Contractor mana
gement• Preventative maint
enance• Engineering admin s
ystems• General site improv
ements
The right person for this role is probably already doing half of this unofficially in their current job
anyway.
The kind of engineer who naturally takes ow
nership.
The one people go to when something needs sorting
properly.
The role is DAYS ONLY which nowadays is becoming harder and harder to find in manu
facturing.
The site itself is well established, busy and genuinely
investing.
This would suit someone from a food/FMCG manufacturing background who wants a role with a bit more variety and responsibility without disappearing into management meeti
