I’m working with a top-tier food manufacturer in South Wales who are looking for a Shift Engineer to join their growing team. It’s an opportunity to work with cutting-edge machinery in a company that’s not just about making food – it’s about making food that feels good, tastes good, and does good.

What’s in it for you?

  • Location: Brynmawr, South Wales
  • Hours: 4 on / 4 off – 12-hour shifts (2 days, 2 nights)
  • Salary: £40,500 – £43,260 + benefits
  • You’ll play a key role in keeping the production line moving smoothly, ensuring minimal downtime, and optimising equipment performance. Whether it’s fixing an issue on the spot or supporting long-term improvement projects, you’ll be the go-to person.

The Day-to-Day

  • Planned and reactive maintenance across the site.
  • Maximise the efficiency of machinery and ensure production targets are hit.
  • Keep detailed records of your work and ensure compliance with all relevant safety and engineering standards.
  • Troubleshoot, resolve, and implement solutions on-the-go, always looking to improve processes.
  • Collaborate with the wider engineering and production teams to keep everything running like clockwork.

What You’ll Bring to the Table

  • Time-served engineer with a Level 3 BTEC qualification (mechanical or electrical). HNC/HND is a bonus.
  • Background in food manufacturing? Even better, but not essential.
  • You’re a problem-solver with strong communication skills, able to work both independently and as part of a team.
  • You’re great under pressure and understand the importance of delivering results within budget.
  • Knowledge of Health & Safety regulations, particularly in an engineering environment.
  • Fully computer literate, you’ll know your way around a maintenance management system.

Why This Job Rocks

  • Join a team that values everyone, invests in growth, and aims to be a market leader in culture and innovation.
  • Access to personal development and career progression.
  • Employee well-being programs, charity initiatives, and retail discounts are just the beginning.
  • Plus, you’ll get 2 days off a year to volunteer for a cause close to your heart.

The Bottom Line

This role isn’t for the faint-hearted, but for a driven and experienced Shift Engineer, it’s a chance to make a real impact in a fast-paced and rewarding environment. If you’re ready to take the next step in your career with a company that’s going places, hit apply today!
