Engineering Supervisor

Job description

Let’s be honest: most Electrical Supervisor roles are just "glorified maintenance" with more paperwork. This isn’t one of them.

A leader in their manufacturing sector, and they don’t just make products; they manage high-speed, industrial automation.

They are looking for a technical authority - someone who knows their way around PLC's (ideally) and to lead the electrical team into a digital-first future.

The Mission

You aren't just "fixing things.". Reporting to the Engineering Manager, you will:

• Own the Standards: From software version control to LOTO processes, you set the bar for "what good looks like."
• Mentor the Team: You’ll take our shift electricians from "good" to "elite" through hands-on coaching and performance development.
• Drive the Tech: Support our site’s digitalisation strategy. If there’s a repeat issue, you’re the one finding the root cause and killing it for good.
• Lead the Projects: Manage capital project electrical scopes and third-party contractors.

Why You’ll Want This Role

• The Money: Minimum £57,000 annual earnings (including allowances/bonuses), with overtime available to push that even higher.
• The Balance: Monday to Friday, 08:00 – 17:00. Rare for a role of this level in manufacturing.
• The Perks: Private medical (for you and the family), a profit-sharing scheme, and a massive retail discount platform.
• The Security: Join a massive UK manufacturer with a clear commitment to sustainable building and long-term asset reliability.

Are You the One?

You’re an electrically biased engineer, Level 3 qualified, and you don’t mind getting your hands dirty when the situation demands it.

• The Brains: Strong Siemens PLC experience and a deep understanding of UK electrical legislation.
• The Badge: 18th Edition (BS 7671).
• The Backbone: Previous experience supervising teams in a manufacturing industry.
• The Vibe: You’re a safety-first leader who enjoys mentoring others.
