Maintenance Engineer

Optima Consultancy Services

Maintenance Engineer | £45,000 + monthly uplift (£3,000/yr) | LittleboroughIf you enjoy figuring out why things go wrong and then making sure they stay fixed, this role will suit you. Machines here run hard, breakdowns happen, and you will be the go-to person when something needs attention. The environment is practical and hands-on. The short-term focus will be reacting and resolving issues. Over time you will build processes and systems so the site becomes proactive rather than reactive.You will work solo as the Maintenance Engineer, but closely with a small team of three experienced Setters. They will raise issues early, and you will diagnose and resolve them. A lot of faults look mechanical at first, but many turn out to be electrical, so strong electrical fault finding will be key.What you will do:

You will be the sites core maintenance engineer working alongside setters and reporting to the Production Manager.

You will maintain and improve injection moulding machines and related plant such as driers, chillers, and heaters.

Most of the work will involve electrical fault finding, with plenty of mechanical involvement too.

You will help define and improve the PPM (planned preventive maintenance) schedule, so it becomes more effective over time.

Technical support from machine suppliers is available when needed.

Why this could be a good move:

You want responsibility and ownership of your maintenance patch.

You like working independently but can bring others with you when needed.

You prefer results over bureaucracy and a straightforward work culture where decisions are practical and changes happen quickly.

Pay and perks:

£45,000 base salary.

Monthly uplift worth around £3,000 per year, reflecting occasional out-of-hours work or staying late when needed.

Standard hours are 8am to 4pm, Monday to Friday, but flexible start and finish times are available so you can avoid peak traffic (some start at 7 and leave at 3).

23 days holiday plus bank holidays.

Work at a stable, growing SME in plastics manufacturing with a straightforward, supportive culture.

About the company:AMS Technical Plastics Ltd is a UK-based specialist in technical injection moulding, producing complex plastic components across industries including automotive, defence and industrial. The business is part of the Accuratio Group and has built a strong reputation for quality moulded parts and engineering expertise.Interested?If youre looking for a role where your experience matters and where youll genuinely improve maintenance performance, this could be worth a look.Dont worry if you dont have a full CV ready to go.Just a short overview of your qualifications, work history and a few key achievements will do the trick.So youre aware, your application will be reviewed by the hiring manager directly.
