  • \n
  • Support and guide engineers on shift, providing direction when needed.
  • \n
  • Maintain engineering discipline, safety, and best practice.
  • \n
  • Communicate clearly with operations and senior stakeholders.
  • \n
\n

\n

    \n
  • Time-served, multi-skilled engineer with strong Mechanical & Electrical capability.

  • Comfortable taking ownership and leading by example.
  • \n
  • Confident decision-maker with a calm, practical approach.

    \n
  • Company pension scheme with Legal & General or NEST pension
  • \n
  • Death in service benefit (optional, linked to pension membership)
  • \n
  • Company sick pay (after qualifying period)
  • \n
  • Health Assured Employee Assistance Programme and Grocery Aid (confidential support 365 days a year)
  • \n
  • Boparan Restaurant Group Discount - 50% discount for friends and family
  • \n
\n
