Job Title:
Maintenance Engineer (Mechanically Biased) Location:
Dartford Salary:
Up to £46,000 per annum
Are you an experienced maintenance engineer with a mechanical bias, looking for your next challenge in a thriving manufacturing environment? Our client, a leader in high-speed production, is seeking a dedicated professional to ensure their production machinery runs smoothly and efficiently. If you're skilled in fault finding, breakdown repairs, and have a keen eye for process improvements, this opportunity is ideal for you.
Key Responsibilities
Conduct planned preventative maintenance (PPM) and reactive maintenance on a wide range of fast-moving production equipment. Diagnose and repair mechanical faults, including issues with hydraulics, pneumatics, gearboxes, and conveyors. Support production by minimising machine downtime and enhancing reliability through proactive maintenance strategies. Apply lean manufacturing principles and contribute to continuous improvement initiatives to optimise machinery performance. Ensure all work complies with health and safety regulations and contribute to a culture of safety awareness. Document maintenance activities using CMMS or other maintenance management systems.
