Process Lead – Maintenance
Glasgow | Permanent | Spirits Manufacturing

We’re recruiting for a Process Lead in Maintenance with a well-established spirits manufacturer in Glasgow. It’s a great step up for a time served engineer who’s ready to lead a small team, or for a current supervisor who wants more ownership of improvement work.

You’ll report to the Maintenance Manager and lead a team of 2 to 5. It’s a hands-on role where you’ll plan the work, still use your own engineering skills, and drive CI across multiple sites. You’ll also deputise for the Maintenance Manager when needed.

What you’ll be doing

• Planning maintenance resources and equipment so the asset care programme is delivered
• Prioritising work around breakdowns and urgent jobs
• Carrying out maintenance and repairs within your own discipline
• Providing technical support, training and coaching to the team
• Leading preventative maintenance improvements and root cause problem solving
• Running CI activity and small improvement projects across the sites
• Carrying out risk assessments, audits and checks, and managing contractors
• Representing maintenance at daily and weekly operational meetings

What we’re looking for

• HNC or BTEC, and time served as an Electrical or Multi-skilled Engineer
• IOSH, or willing to get it
• Strong maintenance background in a manufacturing or process-driven environment (bottling, FMCG, pharma or food would be ideal, but we’ll consider other process industries too)
• Some supervisory experience desirable
• CMMS experience is essential, and SAP and SCADA are a bonus
• Great diagnostic skills
• A good communicator who works well with production and other teams
