We're recruiting for a skilled Maintenance Engineer to join a well-established manufacturing business in Milton Keynes. This is an excellent opportunity to work Monday to Friday with no shift work, supporting modern production equipment within a stable and growing organisation.

Practical experience is just as important as formal qualifications for this role.

If you have strong electrical and mechanical fault-finding skills and experience maintaining machinery in a manufacturing or production environment, we'd love to hear from you. Relevant qualifications are beneficial, but hands-on experience is equally valued.

You'll play a key role in keeping production running efficiently through planned maintenance, fault finding and continuous improvement projects.

What You'll Be Doing

• Carrying out planned preventative maintenance across production equipment
  
  
• Diagnosing and repairing electrical and mechanical faults
  
  
• Responding quickly to breakdowns to minimise downtime
  
  
• Assisting with machinery upgrades, installations and modifications
  
  
• Supporting continuous improvement activities to improve reliability and efficiency
  
  
• Working closely with production teams to maximise machine performance
  
  
• Managing critical spare parts and liaising with specialist contractors when required
  
  
• Ensuring all work is completed safely and in line with company procedures
  
  

What We're Looking For

• Practical experience in a Maintenance Engineer, Multi-Skilled Engineer, Maintenance Technician or similar role
  
  
• Strong electrical and mechanical fault-finding ability
  
  
• Experience working within a manufacturing or production environment
  
  
• Knowledge of 240V electrical systems
  
  
• Ability to read and interpret engineering drawings
  
  
• Understanding of planned preventative maintenance (PPM)
  
  
• An NVQ Level 2 or equivalent qualification would be beneficial, but relevant hands-on experience will also be considered
  
  

Desirable

• Three-phase electrical experience
  
  
• NVQ Level 3 or equivalent qualification
  
  

What's On Offer?

✅ Salary up to £45,760 depending on experience

✅ Monday–Friday days only (8:30am–5:00pm)

✅ Permanent, full-time position

✅ Overtime available

✅ Stable and growing manufacturing business

✅ Opportunity to work on a variety of production machinery and equipment
