Electrical Engineer

The Role

As a Maintenance Electrician on Night shift (4pm - Midnight), you'll be the difference between a smooth production run and a costly delay. You'll maintain and repair critical production equipment, diagnose faults with precision, and implement smart solutions that keep our operations running at their best. Working within a structured maintenance schedule, you'll bring both technical expertise and quick thinking to a fast-paced, hands-on environment. Flexibility to cover different shifts when required is part of the deal.

Key Responsibilities

• Carry out planned and preventative maintenance to minimise disruption to production.
• Diagnose and rectify electrical faults quickly and efficiently.
• Maintain accurate reports on equipment failures and preventative actions taken.
• Work closely with other departments to ensure production deadlines are met.
• Monitor equipment condition and consult with supervisors to get ahead of potential issues.
• Adhere to all health and safety policies, helping maintain a safe working environment.
• Contribute fresh ideas to process improvements and operational efficiency initiatives.
• Attend meetings and training as required.

What We're Looking For

• Registered Electrician, ideally with an industrial background.
• Current practising licence.
• Experience with PLCs, Analogue/Digital control, and AC/DC motor drive systems.
• Ability to read and interpret electrical schematics and fault-find effectively.
• Bonus points for familiarity with newspaper presses (Goss manufacture) and publishing/packaging equipment.
• Strong computer skills and knowledge of communication protocols (232, 422, Ethernet).
• Excellent problem-solving skills with a proactive approach to maintenance.
• Strong communication skills and the ability to work collaboratively in a team.
• A genuine commitment to health and safety practices.
