Castle Employment Group is recruiting for a Multi-Skilled Maintenance Engineer to join a well-established industrial manufacturing site in the Moray area.

This is a fantastic opportunity for an electrically qualified Engineer who enjoys a varied, hands-on role combining electrical and mechanical maintenance with the day-to-day operation of production plant.

Operate and monitor plant machinery, ensuring safe and efficient production.

Diagnose and troubleshoot equipment faults to minimise downtime.

Support planned maintenance and site improvement initiatives.

Work closely with the Operations team to achieve production targets.

Assist with general plant duties, including operating a shovel loader and maintaining good housekeeping standards.

Maintain high standards of health, safety and operational compliance.

What We're Looking For
Electrically qualified Engineer, although mechanically qualified Engineers with strong electrical knowledge will also be considered.

Experience in maintenance, fault finding and troubleshooting within a manufacturing, industrial or high-volume processing environment.

Good understanding of both electrical and mechanical equipment.

Strong awareness of health and safety procedures.

Comfortable combining hands-on maintenance with plant operation.

Proactive, reliable and able to work independently or as part of a team.

Good communication skills and basic IT literacy.

 Benefits
277.2 hours annual leave, inclusive of public holidays.

4% pension contribution, with auto-enrolment after three months.

£500 annual contribution towards private health insurance.

Training and development opportunities.
