Electrical Bias Maintenance Engineer

Electrical Bias Maintenance Engineer | £35.00 - £37.00p/h (outside IR35) Leeds Wakefield Selby Pontefract Bradford Are you an experienced Electrical Bias Maintenance Engineer with a strong background in fast-paced manufacturing, looking for a stable, long-term opportunity?

Do you enjoy varied, hands-on fault-finding one day and planned maintenance the next?

My client is one of the UK's leading and longest-established equipment manufacturers, working with customers across the country to deliver innovative, cost-effective and reliable packaging solutions.

Backed by an experienced team and award-winning processes, they have built a reputation for quality and reliability that sets them apart in the sector.

Take Ownership of Day-to-Day Maintenance Across the Site This is a varied role covering the full spread of maintenance activity across the site's semi-automatic packaging lines - from reactive breakdown response and fault-finding through to planned preventative maintenance (PPM) and general site work.

You'll be responding to issues raised by machine operators, prioritising rapid diagnosis and fix to minimise downtime, and using any quieter periods to get ahead on PPM.

Reporting into the Engineering Manager, you'll be trusted to manage and prioritise your own workload day-to-day.

Your responsibilities: Your day-to-day work will involve diagnosing and resolving electrical faults across a range of semi-automatic packaging machinery, including sensors, drives and pneumatic systems.

You'll be working across a mixed fleet of PLCs on site, primarily Siemens and Mitsubishi - you don't need to be a specialist PLC programmer, but you should be comfortable navigating control systems, diagnosing faults and making minor edits or adjustments where needed.

You'll also carry out pneumatic systems maintenance and fault-finding, including valves, actuators and air prep equipment, and will be working within an ATEX-classified solvent area, so an awareness of ATEX regulations and safe working practices in hazardous atmosphere zones would be an advantage, though not essential.

You'll form part of a small, close-knit engineering team of three, working rotating shifts of 6-2, 2-10.

What We're Looking For To be successful in this role, you'll need to be a time-served, electrically biased maintenance engineer (roughly 70% electrical / 30% mechanical) with proven experience in a manufacturing environment.

You should be confident working independently, be comfortable reading engineering drawings, and bring a proactive, hands-on approach to fault-finding and continuous improvement.

Why Apply?

This is a genuine opportunity to join a long-standing, family-run manufacturer with a strong reputation and a stable, long-term outlook.

You'll be joining a small, supportive engineering team, with real variety in your day-to-day work and the autonomy to manage your own priorities.
