  • Ensure all personnel consistently exhibit safe working behaviours and challenge unsafe actions.
  • Manage safety and environmental incidents, ensuring compliance with reporting requirements.
  • Communicate Health, Safety, and Environmental issues to the team.
  • Ensure all project work meets health & safety and technical file requirements.
  • Ensure statutory checks are up to date for relevant equipment.
  • Consider energy consumption in equipment purchasing and capital projects, and implement routines to reduce energy wastage.
  • Ensure the team is suitably trained for their roles.
  • Contribute to the formulation and delivery of the site vision and strategy as part of the Site Leadership Team.


Quality:

  • Ensure all required process control checks and records meet company standards.
  • Maintain equipment to ensure consistent product quality within tolerance.
  • Assist with complaint investigations and provide feedback.
  • Support product development trials.


People:

  • Develop and manage the engineering team structure.
  • Ensure holiday management is effectively planned, maintaining schedule compliance during peak periods.
  • Provide informal coaching and counselling to help team members reach their potential.
  • Apply HR processes (attendance management, disciplinary, grievance) consistently within your authority.
  • Identify skill gaps (e.g. hydraulics, PLCs) and develop strategies to upskill the team.
  • Deliver training as required and conduct team briefs/toolbox talks.
  • Collaborate with HR to foster positive employee relations, team working, communication, and engagement.


Performance/Cost:

  • Maximise and continuously improve equipment performance.
  • Manage the engineering planning process to ensure high compliance levels.
  • Drive standards in housekeeping and hygiene (e.g. clean as you go, proper equipment storage, tidy workshop).
  • Contribute to identifying and delivering improvement projects.
  • Manage the engineering budget (labour, overtime, repairs, maintenance contracts) and seek value-creation opportunities.
  • Manage inventory levels through the engineering team.
  • Develop and execute a plan to protect the site from equipment obsolescence.
  • Oversee the site capital programme.
  • Stay informed on industry technology and identify opportunities for process/plant improvements.
  • Ensure compliance with company and industry standards for cyber security risk mitigation.


Person Specification:

Qualifications:

  • Degree or equivalent in a relevant field.
  • Professional qualification (e.g., Prince2) desirable.
  • IOSH Managing Safely or NEBOSH General Certificate desirable.


Experience:

  • Electrical and/or mechanical qualifications, or a time-served apprenticeship.
  • 3+ years of experience in a medium/large automated manufacturing operation with relevant safety systems and quality standards.
  • Experience in leading a team.
  • Experience in leading and delivering change desirable.
  • Experience in budget control.
  • Experience in managing capital programmes desirable.
  • Project management experience desirable.
  • Demonstrated use of data and analytical skills.
  • Experience with computerised maintenance management systems (CMMS) and stock control systems.
  • Experience with engineering schedule KPIs.
  • Familiarity with continuous improvement/lean manufacturing techniques (e.g., DMAIC) is advantageous.
