Martin Veasey Talent Solutions is thrilled to partner with a client in the Construction Materials Sector and is currently recruiting a meticulous and dedicated Mechanical Reliability Engineer . This is an opportunity to become part of a team that's not just about hitting targets but making meaningful strides in the industry.

About the Role

In this pivotal position, you'll play a key role in the plant's continuous improvement efforts. Reporting directly to the Reliability Engineer and ultimately to the Mechanical Methods Manager (who began their own journey as an apprentice), you'll have the opportunity for personal and professional growth, surrounded by people who've walked your path.

• Proactive Equipment Reviews : You'll seek out flaws and anticipate them, guiding maintenance and repair budgeting and planning.
• Collaborative Analysis : Attend regular meetings that form the backbone of our decision-making processes, such as root cause analysis, ensuring equipment longevity and optimal performance.
• Knowledge Sharing : With a portion of your time dedicated to understanding every nut and bolt of our site-specific operations, you'll become the go-to for insights on maintaining the pulse of our plant.

About You

• Qualifications : A solid mechanical background is non-negotiable, with qualifications stretching from modern apprenticeships to HNC/HND levels.
• Experience: Your background should showcase a robust history in heavy industry environments - think papermills, renewable energy, oil and gas, or similar sectors. This should include recent experience of engineering equipment inspection and condition monitoring. Your role will play a key part in decision making and short-, medium- and long-term planning of proactive maintenance planning including during major shutdowns and associated capital expenditure and resource planning. Root cause analysis will be second nature to you. You will be confident presenting your reports and findings to plant and engineering management.
• Skills: Adept at using CMMS systems such as SAP or similar, coupled with a deep understanding of equipment safety and operational safety protocols and a keen eye for detail, is essential. Proficiency in Excel and Powerpoint very advantageous. A huge plus is experience with ABB Knowledge Manager, Siemens, and SAP to log all machinery updates/errors and maintenance.
• Character: Diligent, accountable, and detail-oriented - a person dedicated to understanding and enhancing the continued success and improvement of our client's plant operations.

Above all, you're someone ready to contribute to a team's success and driven by the desire to impact the performance and reliability of a top-tier manufacturing facility.

In return our client offers excellent ongoing training to enhance your ongoing professional engineering development. Alongside this there are regular salary reviews and opportunities to progress through the ranks within this flag ship site which is undergoing considerable investment and enhancement.
