What you bring:

  • Strong electrical engineering experience, ideally in industrial or manufacturing environments.
  • Hands-on knowledge of PLCs, drives, motors, and other plant electrical equipment.
  • Problem-solving mindset – you spot issues before they become crises.
  • Health & safety awareness – keeping yourself and the team safe is second nature.

What’s in it for you:

  • Competitive salary and benefits that reward your skills.
  • Real training, development, and career progression opportunities.
  • A supportive, collaborative team that values your input.
