Permanent Are you a Maintenance Engineer who is as comfortable with a welder as you are with a spanner? We're looking for a practical, hands-on Multiskilled Maintenance Engineer to join an established business operating within the agricultural production sector. This is a varied engineering role with a strong focus on welding and fabrication. You'll spend around half your time in the workshop, fabricating, modifying and repairing components, and the other half working within production on machinery installation, breakdowns and maintenance. If you enjoy making things, fixing things and finding practical solutions, this could be an excellent opportunity. The Role Your time will be split approximately: 30%

Welding, fabrication and modification 30%

Breakdown maintenance and fault finding 30%

New machinery installation and commissioning 10%

Planned/preventative maintenance You'll work approximately 50% in the workshop and 50% within the production environment. Welding & Fabrication A significant part of the role will involve fabricating and modifying components and equipment, so we're particularly interested in engineers with good practical welding and fabrication skills. You'll be working with: MIG welding equipment Drills Lathes Guillotines General workshop machinery Cutting and fabrication equipment Hand and power tools You'll then use the components you've fabricated when carrying out installation, modification and maintenance work within production. What You'll Be Working On The business operates a range of agricultural and production machinery, so you'll encounter equipment including: Conveyors Elevators Augers Mechanical handling equipment Production machinery General industrial plant One minute you could be responding to a machinery breakdown, the next fabricating a replacement component in the workshop before installing it back into production. What We're Looking For We're looking for someone with a genuine hands-on engineering background who enjoys solving problems and isn't afraid to get stuck in. Ideally, you'll have experience in: MIG welding

important Fabrication and metalwork Mechanical fault finding and repair Machinery installation and commissioning Preventative maintenance Component modification General workshop machinery Working safely around production equipment TIG or other welding experience would be an advantage but isn't essential. Experience within agriculture, manufacturing, food production, engineering or a similar industrial environment would be particularly useful. The Person This isn't a role for someone who wants to simply complete a maintenance checklist and wait for the next job. We're looking for a practical problem solver who enjoys variety and takes pride in finding a solution. You'll ideally be: Mechanically minded and technically capable A confident MIG welder/fabricator Strong at fault finding and problem solving Comfortable working independently Confident using workshop machinery Able to fabricate, modify and repair equipment Practical and resourceful Happy working in a workshop and production environment A genuine "can-do" person Comfortable getting their hands dirty Adaptable and willing to tackle different challenges Why Join? This is a great opportunity for an engineer who wants variety rather than routine. You'll have the opportunity to use your engineering skills across welding, fabrication, mechanical maintenance, machinery installation, fault finding and preventative maintenance, with plenty of scope to make a real contribution. If you're a hands-on engineer who enjoys welding, fabrication and fixing things properly, we'd like to hear from you. Apply today or contact Steve at Glue Resourcing for more information.
