About the Role
We are seeking an experienced Multi-Skilled Night Maintenance Engineer to join a leading food manufacturing facility in Norfolk. Operating on a permanent night shift, you will play a critical role in minimizing downtime by swiftly responding to production breakdowns and carrying out planned preventative maintenance (PPM) across complex processing and packaging machinery.

Project Work: Assist in small-scale engineering projects, modifications, and process improvements across the site.
Health & Safety Compliance: Strictly adhere to HSE protocols, including Lock-Out/Tag-Out (LOTO), Permits to Work, Risk Assessments, Method Statements, and Standard Operating Procedures.
Key Requirements
Essential:
Qualifications: Recognized Engineering Apprenticeship with NVQ Level 3 and City & Guilds (Electrical or Mechanical).
Skills: Strong multi-skilled capabilities with a thorough understanding of both electrical and mechanical systems.
Technical Abilities: Proficient in reading schematic diagrams and possessing strong workshop skills (including MIG, TIG, or ARC welding).
Mindset: Logical approach to fault-finding, excellent organizational skills, and a self-motivated, "can-do" attitude to work independently during night operations.
ONC / HNC in Engineering or equivalent.

Competency in PLC diagnosis and troubleshooting.
Experience utilizing Computerized Maintenance Management Systems (CMMS).
