Manufacturing Automation Consultant - Industry 4.0

11 Days Old

Manufacturing Automation Consultant Industry 4.0 (Progression from Engineering)
London (Liverpool Street) Hybrid (3 days in the office)
£60,000 £70,000 + bonus + excellent benefits
If youve built a solid foundation in manufacturing or automation and youre starting to feel like you want more variety, more influence, and more ownership this could be a really interesting next step.
This role isnt about sitting within one factory or repeating the same type of project. Its about working across a group of businesses, helping them figure out how to improve, automate and modernise the way they operate.
Youll still be hands-on, but youll also have a voice in what gets done and how.
What the role looks like day to day
Youll be working with different operating companies, getting under the skin of how they run and spotting where automation or Industry 4.0 solutions can make a real difference.
Sometimes that might be helping a site explore MES or SCADA properly for the first time. Other times it could be running a pilot around IoT, robotics or data capture.
Youll take ideas from early concept through to proof of value, and then help teams take ownership and scale what works.
Its a mix of problem solving, stakeholder engagement and practical delivery.
What theyre looking for
This would suit someone who:
Has a few years experience in manufacturing, automation or industrial systems
Has worked with things like PLCs, MES, SCADA, IIoT or similar
Understands how factories actually run, not just the theory
Enjoys solving problems and figuring things out from first principles
Is starting to want more ownership or a more consultative role
You dont need to have done a formal consulting role before, but you do need to be comfortable working with different people and environments.
Why this role stands out
The biggest thing people tend to enjoy here is the variety and the level of trust.
Youre not just delivering someone elses plan youre helping shape it.
Youll get exposure to a wide range of technologies, different types of manufacturing environments, and senior stakeholders across multiple businesses.
Theres also a clear path into more senior or architectural roles over time if thats where you want to go.
Package
£60,000 £70,000 salary
Bonus up to 15%
Share incentive plan
Pension up to 10.5% employer contribution
Private medical cover
Life assurance and income protection
25 days holiday plus bank holidays
If youre at the point where you want to step beyond a purely technical role and start having more impact, this is well worth a conversation.
