Ballantine Recruitment is supporting a growing manufacturing business in Liverpool with the appointment of an experienced Multi-Skilled Shift Engineer.
This is a genuine hands-on engineering position within a fast-paced production environment.
Youโll be responsible for keeping equipment running, responding quickly to breakdowns and making sure planned maintenance is completed properly โ while also getting involved in continuous improvement and engineering projects.
The site operates a varied mix of automated production and packaging equipment, so this isnโt a role where youโll be working on the same piece of kit every day.
