About the role

Reliability Engineer

Monday – Friday | Days 

Fancy moving away from simply fixing breakdowns and getting more involved in why they’re happening in the first place?

We’re working with a highly reputable and well-established FMCG manufacturer who are looking for an experienced Reliability Engineer to join their engineering team.

This is a great opportunity for someone who enjoys looking at the bigger picture, improving equipment performance and making sure those same breakdowns don't keep coming back.

The Role

Analyse equipment failures and identify root causes

Develop and improve preventative and predictive maintenance strategies

Use engineering data to identify trends, recurring faults and opportunities for improvement

Drive reliability and continuous improvement projects across site

Work closely with Maintenance and Production teams

Improve asset availability, performance and overall equipment reliability

Support the development of PPM and condition-based maintenance programmes

Help reduce downtime, maintenance costs and repeat failures

What We're Looking For

Previous experience in a Reliability, Maintenance or Continuous Improvement Engineering role

Strong understanding of engineering maintenance principles

Experience analysing equipment failures and carrying out RCA

Ideally experience within FMCG, food or another high-volume manufacturing environment

Strong analytical and problem-solving skills

Someone who enjoys getting into the detail and finding the actual cause of a problem, rather than simply putting a plaster over it

What's On Offer?

Monday – Friday, days
Excellent salary
Strong benefits package
Highly reputable FMCG business
Long-term career opportunity
Genuine scope to make an impact
