Overview

We are looking for a skilled and motivated Shift Engineer to join a busy, high-volume manufacturing operation in Leeds. This hands-on role is ideal for an engineer who enjoys problem-solving, fault finding, and keeping production running efficiently.

Working as part of an experienced engineering team, you will be responsible for maintaining plant machinery, utilities, and site equipment through both planned and reactive maintenance activities.

This role would particularly suit engineers from manufacturing, production, industrial maintenance, or ex-military backgrounds, especially former Navy Marine Engineers or Armed Forces personnel with strong mechanical and electrical experience.

Key Responsibilities

  • Carry out planned preventative maintenance (PPM) and reactive repairs on plant machinery and site equipment.
  • Diagnose and resolve electrical and mechanical faults to minimise downtime.
  • Work with PLC-controlled systems, 3-phase motors, boilers, bearings, conveyors, and associated machinery.
  • Complete routine inspections and maintenance checks.
  • Support production teams to ensure equipment reliability and performance.
  • Maintain accurate maintenance records and documentation.
  • Follow Health & Safety procedures and safe systems of work.
  • Assist with continuous improvement initiatives and engineering projects.
  • Participate in breakdown response and call-outs when required.
  • Help maintain a safe, clean, and organised working environment.

Skills & Experience

The Ideal candidate would be practical, hands-on engineer who thrives in a fast-paced environment and enjoys solving problems. The ideal candidate will be proactive, reliable, and committed to maintaining high standards of safety and performance.

You’ll Bring:

  • Strong mechanical engineering experience, supported by good electrical fault-finding skills.
  • Previous experience maintaining and repairing industrial or production machinery.
  • A methodical approach to diagnosing faults and implementing effective solutions.
  • The ability to work under pressure and respond quickly to breakdowns.
  • A flexible, team-focused attitude with a willingness to support operational requirements.
  • Excellent communication skills and the confidence to work with colleagues across all departments.
  • A strong commitment to Health & Safety and continuous improvement.

Desirable:

  • NVQ Level 3 (or equivalent) in Mechanical or Electrical Engineering.
  • Experience working with PLC-controlled equipment and automated systems.
  • Background within manufacturing, FMCG, production, or industrial environments.
  • Engineering experience gained within the Armed Forces or other highly disciplined technical environments.

What’s in It for You?

  • Competitive salary
  • Company pension scheme
  • Free life assurance
  • 24/7 GP access and Employee Assistance Programme (EAP)
  • Discounted gym membership
  • Structured engineering grading programme
  • Ongoing training and development
  • Clear career progression opportunities
  • Long service and recognition awards
  • Enhanced family-related leave benefits
  • Free onsite parking

If you’re a hands-on engineer who enjoys working in a fast-paced environment and wants to join a company that invests in its people, we’d love to hear from you.
