Multi Skilled Engineer

New Today

Multi-Skilled Maintenance Technician Newcastle upon Tyne 3 Shift pattern £48800 plus benefits
If you’re the kind of engineer who enjoys fixing problems properly (not just patching them up), this one’s worth a look.
We’re working with a global manufacturer that’s invested heavily in its Newcastle site, a recognised Centre of Excellence producing high-quality printed materials for major consumer brands. It’s a busy, fast-moving environment where engineering is genuinely valued, not just seen as a support function.
Why this role stands out
You’ll have real input into improvements, not just firefighting
A good mix of reactive, preventative, and project work
Opportunities to get involved in CAPEX and continuous improvement initiatives
A site that takes safety, quality, and engineering standards seriously
Chance to support and mentor apprentices, if that’s something you enjoy
What you’ll be doing
Keeping production lines running efficiently through planned and reactive maintenance
Diagnosing and resolving electrical and mechanical faults
Identifying and implementing process and line improvements
Supporting project work and equipment upgrades
Monitoring downtime and performance, helping drive improvements
Working closely with production and external suppliers
What we’re looking for
A multi-skilled engineer with both mechanical and electrical experience
Ideally 5+ years in a manufacturing environment
Someone who takes pride in doing things properly and improving how things run
Comfortable working in a fast-paced production setting
A team player who can also work independently when needed
This isn’t a role where you’ll just be ticking boxes or constantly chasing breakdowns. You’ll be trusted to take ownership, contribute ideas, and play a part in improving how the site operates.
If you like being hands-on but also want your voice heard when it comes to improvements, it’s a strong opportunity.
