We are currently recruiting for a skilled and proactive Maintenance Technician to join a well-established automotive manufacturer. This is an ongoing temporary position offering stable hours and the opportunity to work across a wide range of specialist machinery and equipment.

The Role

This is a varied, hands-on maintenance position where no two days are the same. You will play a key role in keeping production running smoothly by carrying out both reactive and planned maintenance across the site.

While this role has a strong electrical bias (ideally suited to someone who has trained as an electrician), you will also be expected to assist with mechanical repairs and general site maintenance tasks.

•    Maintenance and repair of production machinery including presses, CNC machines, sewing machinery and upholstery equipment

•    Mechanical maintenance and troubleshooting

•    General site maintenance including plumbing and basic carpentry tasks

•    Supporting planned preventative maintenance schedules

•    Working closely with the site team to resolve breakdowns efficiently

•    Contributing ideas for continuous improvement

•    Working independently when required and taking ownership of tasks

About You

•    Electrical background essential – ideally apprenticeship-trained electrician

•    Experience in manufacturing or industrial maintenance preferred

•    Comfortable working on a variety of machinery and mechanical systems

•    Willing to turn your hand to general maintenance tasks beyond your core trade

•    Proactive, practical and solution-focused

•    Able to work both independently and as part of a small team

•    Good communication skills and a collaborative approach

What’s on Offer

•    £14.00 per hour

•    Ongoing temporary contract

•    Early finish every Friday

•    Opportunity to work within a diverse and dynamic manufacturing environment

•    Exposure to both automotive and aerospace production equipment

If you’re a hands-on maintenance professional with strong electrical skills and a flexible, team-focused approach, we’d love to hear from you.
