Maintenance & Compliance Manager
Location:
North Walsham
Salary:
£62,500 + Package
Days (37.5 hours)
This is not a maintenance manager role where you inherit a well-oiled machine.
This is a role where you build it, shape it, and own it.
Sitting on the Senior Leadership Team, youll take full accountability for engineering standards, asset care, and compliance across a complex, high-volume manufacturing site
with the autonomy to raise the bar and leave a legacy.
Why this role stands out
True ownership
you define the maintenance strategy, not just execute it
SLT influence
a seat at the table with real decision-making authority
Build & shape a function
develop structure, capability, and standards
Balance of strategy + hands-on credibility
not a desk-only leadership role
Long-term impact
asset reliability, compliance, and culture sit with you
What youll be accountable for: Maintenance & Compliance Manager
Youll lead the entire engineering and asset care function, with responsibility for both people and performance.
Own and deliver the site-wide Asset Care strategy
Set and enforce engineering standards, compliance, and safe systems of work
Lead HSE performance with a zero-accident mindset
Drive a data-led maintenance culture through CMMS and KPI ownership
Take full ownership of engineering compliance, audits, and statutory requirements
Lead CAPEX, projects, and installation of new production capability
Manage and develop a multi-layer engineering team, including:
Shift Asset Care Technicians
Compliance Team Leader
Project Engineer
Process Engineering capability
Control maintenance budgets, spend, and long-term asset planning
Partner closely with operations, planning, finance, and senior stakeholders
What were looking for: Maintenance & Compliance Manager
This role needs more than a good maintenance manager
it needs a leader who can set direction and hold standards.
Proven experience in a senior maintenance or engineering leadership role
Strong background in manufacturing or industrial environments
Deep understanding of engineering compliance, audits, and statutory requirements
Experience leading multi-disciplinary teams through structure and change
Solid technical foundation (mechanical, electrical, or both)
Track record of delivering projects, CAPEX, and continuous improvement
Able to operate confidently at senior leadership level
Whats on offer
£62,500 salary
33 days holiday
6% pension
Private medical (including dental)
Death in service (2x salary)
But more importantly:
A role with real ownership, visibility, and progression potential
The reality of the role
This is a site with opportunity
not perfection.
If youre motivated by:
Raising standards
Building teams
Creating structure where its needed
Leaving a lasting impact
Youll thrive here.
If youre looking for:
A steady-state environment
Minimal challenge
Or a purely strategic role without hands-on leadership
This wont be the right fit.
If youre ready to step into a role where engineering, compliance, and performance sit firmly in your hands, apply now.
