- Escalation of Issues: Promptly escalate any major equipment issues or safety concerns to the Shift Engineering Team Leader or relevant management, following the correct procedures to ensure swift and effective resolution.
- Compliance & Safety: Uphold all health, safety, and environmental standards in line with company policies. Ensure all work is carried out to the highest standard and that any risks are immediately addressed.
- A minimum of 2-3 years' experience within a similar role.
- Demonstrated experience in mechanical and electrical fault finding and repair, with the ability to read and interpret engineering drawings, schematics, and wiring diagrams.

- Problem-Solving: You have a methodical approach to troubleshooting and are able to work under pressure to quickly identify and fix faults, ensuring production continues smoothly.
- Team Player: Strong ability to collaborate with colleagues across departments, providing engineering support where necessary and ensuring smooth handovers between shifts.
- Communication Skills: Clear and effective communication skills, both written and verbal, to ensure accurate reporting and handovers, as well as the ability to explain technical issues to non-technical team members.
- Self-Motivated: Able to take initiative, work autonomously, and drive tasks to completion with minimal supervision, especially during night shifts.
- Adaptability: Comfortable working in a fast-paced, dynamic environment where priorities can shift, and the ability to manage multiple tasks simultaneously.
- Attention to Detail: Precision in both planned maintenance tasks and when resolving breakdowns, ensuring that no small detail is overlooked that could lead to bigger issues later on.
