Job Description
Reliability Manager – Edinburgh – FMCG Manufacturing
We are working on behalf of a well established FMCG manufacturer in Edinburgh, who are looking to appoint a Reliability Manager to join their site leadership team.
This is a great opportunity for an experienced engineering or reliability professional to take ownership of reliability strategy across a busy, fast paced manufacturing site. You will lead a team of reliability technicians and a planner, working closely with the Engineering Manager to improve equipment performance, reduce downtime and build a strong culture of continuous improvement.
What you will be doing
Take responsibility for the site's overall reliability performance, including breakdown frequency, repair times, planned maintenance compliance and equipment availability
Lead investigations into equipment failures, making sure the real cause is found and properly fixed rather than just patched up
Manage and develop the maintenance system used across the site, ensuring planned maintenance is carried out on time and the data is used properly
Assess which assets are most critical to the business and help shape future investment decisions
Lead, coach and develop your team, setting clear objectives and supporting their growth
What we are looking for
Experience leading and developing engineering or maintenance teams, ideally within FMCG or another fast paced manufacturing environment
A solid track record improving equipment reliability and reducing downtime
A good understanding of root cause investigation techniques
Experience using a computerised maintenance management system
Some exposure to predictive maintenance methods such as vibration analysis or thermography
Strong communication skills, with the ability to work closely with people across the site at all levels
Why apply
This is a hands on leadership role with real scope to shape how reliability is managed on site. You will be joining a strong, established engineering team and will have the backing of senior leadership to make meaningful improvements.
This role is being handled confidentially. For a full job description and to discuss in confidence, please get in touch.
