Maintenance Engineer
Cambridgeshire
Monday-Friday, DAYS ONLY
Expected Earnings Over £47,000
Get Off Shifts. Get Your Evenings Back. Enjoy a Better Work-Life Balance.
The Collective Network are supporting a well-established food manufacturing organisation with over a century of industry presence and a strong reputation for quality, development, and continuous improvement.
This opportunity is ideal for engineers who are ready to step away from shift patterns and move into a stable days-based engineering role with long-term career prospects and a genuinely supportive culture.
Why This Role Stands Out

  • Straight days - no nights, no rotating shifts
  • A culture focused on developing people & investing in site improvements
  • Overtime paid at x1.5
  • Opportunity to work in a small, collaborative team where you can make an impact


The Role
You'll join a small but skilled engineering team on a busy food manufacturing site, taking ownership of preventative maintenance, reactive engineering support, and equipment improvements across a range of electro-mechanical assets.
Key responsibilities include:

  • Delivering periodic & condition-based PPM on production equipment
  • Quick and efficient fault-finding and breakdown response
  • Fabricating and machining parts (lathe, milling, welding)
  • Supporting CI projects and operational improvements
  • Working with the Operations team to maximise equipment performance
  • Keeping documentation up to date and using the CMMS system effectively
  • Liaising with contractors and supporting site upgrades
  • Ongoing training and development to maintain professional competence
  • There will be an on-call requirement which will include a standby charge and increased rate if called out.


What You'll Bring

  • Level 3 Engineering qualification (Electro-Mechanical preferred)
  • Strong mechanical & electrical fault-finding ability
  • Ability to read mechanical and electrical drawings
  • Confident with fabrication and machining techniques
  • Able to work at height and in confined spaces
  • Understanding of hydraulics, pneumatics & motion control
  • PLC logic understanding (desirable)
