  • Ensure compliance with UK Health & Safety regulations, including PUWER, LOLER, and COSHH.
  • Drive continuous improvement initiatives, including Root Cause Analysis (RCA) and Total Productive Maintenance (TPM) methodologies.
  • Utilise CMMS and data analytics to track maintenance performance and identify improvement opportunities.
What We’re Looking For:
  • Proven experience in maintenance management within a manufacturing, chemical, or industrial environment.
  • Strong knowledge of mechanical, electrical, and instrumentation systems.
  • Familiarity with reliability-centred maintenance (RCM) and predictive maintenance techniques.
  • A results-driven mindset with a focus on safety, efficiency, and continuous improvement.
  • Excellent leadership and team management skills.
  • Strong IT skills, with experience in CMMS and Microsoft Office applications.
Why Join This Opportunity?
  • Competitive salary (£45,000 - £56,000 DOE) and benefits package.
  • A chance to make a real impact in a fast-paced, innovative manufacturing environment.
  • Work with a leading global organisation, offering strong growth and career development opportunities.
  • Join a key production site in Cheshire, supporting industry-leading brands.

If you are passionate about engineering excellence and reliability and are looking for your next challenge, we’d love to hear from you!
