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.

Unlike a traditional maintenance-only position, this role offers the opportunity to take ownership of both plant operation and maintenance, supporting production performance, equipment reliability and continuous improvement.

The Role

• Carry out electrical and mechanical maintenance, fault finding and repairs across production equipment.

• 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.
