Mechanical Maintenance Engineer - Join a Landmark Manufacturer in Bury St Edmunds
Three Shift Pattern - Monday to Friday
£52,000!

The Opportunity
This is your chance to join one of the UK's most recognisable manufacturing names - a business that's been part of Bury St Edmunds for over 200 years and is now entering a major new phase of investment and growth.

With multi-site developments underway, they're backing their future - and their people. If you're a hands-on Mechanical Engineer who wants to be part of a genuinely skilled team and a brand with real staying power, read on.

About the Site
Tradition meets modern manufacturing. The site is packed with history but runs on innovation - blending classic engineering with state-of-the-art equipment. It's the kind of place where what you do genuinely matters - not just for production, but for the legacy behind it.

Why This Role Stands Out
This isn't a box-ticking job. You'll be part of a team that takes pride in their craft and solves real problems on the ground. In return, you'll get:

• 33 days holiday (including bank holidays)
• 33% discount on food and drink at selected retail venues
• 33% discount on company products
• Up to 5% matched pension
• Private medical insurance for you and your family
• Life assurance at 4x your salary
• Access to a broad range of flexible benefits

The Role
As a Mechanical Maintenance Engineer, you'll be responsible for keeping the production plant running efficiently. That means:

• Routine and preventative maintenance on key assets
• Rapid fault finding and repairs when things go wrong
• Supporting continuous improvement projects and root cause analysis
• Working across gearboxes, conveyors, pumps, and pipework
• Collaborating with a multi-skilled engineering team

What You'll Need
We're after someone who's practical, proactive, and not afraid to get their hands dirty. You'll ideally bring:

• A mechanical qualification (ONC/HNC or NVQ level 3)
• Strong experience in a manufacturing environment
• Solid knowledge of pumps, valves, bearings, and drives
• Basic understanding of pneumatics and fluid systems
• Bonus: any electrical appreciation or experience in FMCG

This is more than a maintenance job - it's a chance to be part of something iconic. Don't miss it.
