We are seeking two experienced Maintenance Fitters to join a fast‑paced FMCG manufacturing site.
This is a permanent opportunity within a tight‑knit maintenance team supporting a 24/5 operation.
You’ll complete six weeks of training on day shift (6am–2pm) before moving into a permanent afternoon shift (2pm–10pm) Monday to Friday.

About the Role

You will be responsible for:

  • Reactive and preventative maintenance across high‑speed production equipment
  • Troubleshooting mechanical faults under pressure
  • Stainless steel TIG/MIG welding
  • Working with pumps, valves, gearboxes, hydraulics and general food‑grade machinery
  • Supporting two major planned shutdowns per year (1–2 weeks each)
  • Contributing to a collaborative, close‑knit maintenance team

A fully equipped workshop is onsite, including a lathe, drill press, and all required tools (own hand tools would be beneficial).

What We’re Looking For

  • Cert III in Engineering – Mechanical Trade
  • Strong TIG/MIG stainless steel welding experience
  • FMCG or high‑speed manufacturing background
  • Proven reactive maintenance capability
  • Ability to read basic sensor systems (PLC exposure highly regarded)
  • Team‑oriented, reliable, and calm under pressure
  • Willingness to support shutdowns and overtime when required

Candidates with service/field experience or strong breakdown‑repair capability (not just part‑replacement) will be highly regarded.

Why Apply?

  • Competitive salary + shift loading + overtime
  • Stable Monday–Friday roster
  • Supportive, tight‑knit team culture
  • Genuine internal progression opportunities
  • Long‑term career pathway in a growing food manufacturing environment
