Multiskilled Maintenance Engineer (Manufacturing) ?? Wigan | ?? £40,000 - £42,000 + paid overtime | Permanent | Shift-based
I’m recruiting for a well-established manufacturing business in Wigan who are looking to add a Multiskilled Maintenance Engineer to their site team.
This is one of those roles where you’ll be properly valued, kept busy (in a good way), and trusted to get on with the job without micromanagement. If you enjoy fault-finding, keeping production moving, and leaving machines running better than you found them… you’ll feel right at home here.
The basics Salary is £40,000 - £42,000, with overtime paid on top.
Shift pattern:
* 06:00 - 14:00

* 14:00 - 22:00

* 22:00 - 06:00 (roughly 1 in 5)

You’ll be joining a supportive engineering function in a fast-paced environment, working across reactive and planned maintenance, site equipment, and general engineering support to keep downtime to an absolute minimum.
There’s also a strong people-led culture behind this role with wellbeing support, development opportunities, and a business that genuinely takes safety and standards seriously.
Must-haves (keep it simple) * HNC in Mechanical or Electrical Engineering (or equivalent level experience)

* Manufacturing maintenance experience (reactive + PPM)

* Comfortable fault-finding and getting stuck in

* Strong H&S mindset and pride in doing things properly

If this sounds like your kind of job, drop me a message and I’ll share the full details (and talk you through the shift pattern properly, so there are no surprises).
Tea is optional. Reliability is not. ??
