We’re working with a long-established UK manufacturer, based in the Thrapston area that operates in a fast-paced, high-volume environment. Due to continued investment in engineering and automation, they’re looking to expand their team with an experienced Electrical Shift Engineer.
The Role
As an Electrical Shift Engineer, you’ll be responsible for delivering planned and reactive electrical maintenance across a broad range of automated production machinery. This includes working on PLC-controlled equipment, three-phase systems, and high-speed manufacturing lines. You'll also support mechanical maintenance as needed and play a key role in continuous improvement initiatives.
Key Responsibilities
* Electrical fault finding and repairs across production machinery
* Working with PLCs for fault diagnosis
* Executing planned maintenance in line with schedules
* Recording activity through CMMS (Maximo)
* Supporting CI and reliability projects
* Liaising with production teams to minimise downtime
* Ensuring all work is completed to Health & Safety standards
About You

* Strong electrical fault-finding and diagnostic skills
* PLC knowledge essential (Siemens / Allen Bradley )
* Previous experience in a manufacturing environment
* Able to work autonomously or as part of a team
* Comfortable working on a 4 on 4 off shift pattern (days/nights)
Shift:
2 days / 2 nights / 4 off.
Each 8 rotations of this pattern you get 18 shifts off (which includes your holidays)
Although your holidays are effectively rostered, working this pattern means you get over 7 x as much time off and work approximately only 25% of the year!
Where required, for unavoidable situations, the Engineers swap shifts to accommodate.
What’s in it for you?
* Competitive salary and shift allowance
* Overtime opportunities
* Supportive engineering leadership team
* Modern, well-invested site
* Ongoing training and development
