Maintenance Engineer

Days (Monday to Friday)

Up to £42,000

Okehampton, Devon

Hands-on engineering role with real impact….

We're working with a long-established, well-invested production site based near Okehampton who are looking to expand their maintenance team. With a supervisor now in place to support the Engineering Manager, they're looking to add a skilled and proactive Maintenance Engineer to help deliver reliable plant performance and reduce downtime.

This is a days-based role in a fast-paced production environment, ideally suited to someone with a strong electrical background - though mechanical engineers with good fault-finding skills are also encouraged to apply.

What you'll be doing:

As part of the core engineering team, you'll support both reactive and planned maintenance across a range of production machinery and utilities.

Key duties will include:

Carrying out fault-finding, repairs, and component replacement on a wide range of electrical and mechanical systems.

Supporting the site's preventative maintenance schedule to minimise unplanned breakdowns.

Working safely and efficiently within electrical panels, including isolations, motor controls, sensors, relays, and PLCs.

Supporting continuous improvement activities and looking for ways to reduce downtime.

Working closely with the Supervisor and Engineering Manager to prioritise work and keep production running smoothly.

What you'll need to succeed:

A recognised qualification or apprenticeship in electrical or mechanical engineering.

Solid experience in a maintenance role within a production or manufacturing setting.

Comfortable with both reactive and preventative maintenance tasks.

Electrical bias preferred - confident working safely on control panels, drives, sensors, and three-phase systems.

Familiarity with CMMS systems and maintenance reporting.

A team player with a proactive and hands-on approach to engineering challenges.

What's in it for you?

Salary up to £42,000 based on a 40-hour week.

Overtime paid at 1.5x

Call-out rota (one in six weeks) with paid attendance.

Days-based shift pattern (no nights).

Great team culture with ongoing investment in training, tools, and equipment.

Stable and well-established employer with clear progression routes.
