Are you a Multi-Skilled Maintenance Engineer looking for an outstanding work–life balance without compromising on salary or technical challenge?

This is a fantastic opportunity to join a well-established, asset-heavy industrial site offering a days-only 4 on / 4 off shift pattern — meaning no nights and half the year off. The site continues to invest in plant, equipment, and engineering standards, making this a strong long-term career move.

Stable employer that values and invests in engineers
