Contract Multi-skilled Maintenance Engineer

(FMCG / Food Manufacturing)

London

Competitive Hourly Rate. Outside IR35

Engineering is about problem-solving, adapting to challenges, and keeping operations running smoothly. As a Contract Maintenance Engineer, you’ll play a crucial role in ensuring this fast-paced food manufacturing site stays at peak performance. If you thrive in an environment where no two days are the same and have the technical expertise to back it up, this could be the contract for you.

You’ll be responsible for keeping production moving by carrying out planned and reactive maintenance, fault finding, and repairs on a variety of machinery. A multi-skilled background in both electrical and mechanical engineering is key, as is experience within the food or FMCG industry. The pace is fast, the challenges are real, but the impact you’ll make will be invaluable.

This is a business that values expertise. Your input will be heard, and you’ll have the autonomy to make real improvements. If you’re a problem solver with a proactive mindset, you’ll fit right in. We’re not looking for someone to just go through the motions; we need a hands-on engineer who takes pride in delivering high standards and keeping things running efficiently.

What makes you stand out? Your ability to hit the ground running, diagnose faults effectively, and keep downtime to an absolute minimum. Whether it’s PLC fault finding, working with conveyors, or tackling electrical and mechanical breakdowns, your expertise will be key in ensuring smooth operations.

The food manufacturing industry is relentless, and experience in this sector is essential. This business is in a strong position with a significant market share and ongoing investment, making it an exciting time to get involved. If you’re looking for a contract where you can make an impact, this is it.
