Maintenance Team Lead/Senior Supervisor - Daventry, UK, Reliability, Maintenance and Engineering (RME), RME

Job :  | Amazon UK Services Ltd.

Daventry, UK.

Our Reliability Maintenance Engineering (RME) team is central to Amazon's commitment to innovation. As Amazon evolves and adapts, this team makes sure that the tools and technologies we use keep up. As a Senior RME Technician, you'll help us stay one step ahead, adopting the latest technologies and identifying new and efficient ways of working. In this role, you’ll pay close attention to our processes to help maintain our high standards, and you’ll put in place upgrades to take that standard even higher.

• Demonstrate best practice on using equipment safely and monitor teams to ensure everyone follows the correct processes.
• Keep track of equipment performance through visual checks, condition‑based monitoring, and preventative maintenance tasks and schedule additional servicing when required.
• Supervise technicians on shift to support their development and act as the first point of contact for Reliability Maintenance Engineers.
• Solve issues in equipment to reduce downtime for operations so they can process packages as quickly as possible.
• Support in finding ways to continually improve systems and standardise processes across the EU network.

In every shift, you’ll be leading a team to ensure everyone has the equipment they need and that it’s running properly. That involves monitoring processes so that regulations and policies are followed and ensuring that preventative maintenance is carried out to increase equipment uptime. You’ll suggest improvements to make our systems more efficient and productive, then implement those improvements across an EU-wide function.

You’ll also be monitoring processes with tools like SCADA to guarantee their performance, as well as working closely with your line manager to assist with admin tasks.

This role is located at one of our operational sites. You’ll work shift patterns, which may include some weekends and nights. As you develop your experience within this exciting part of Amazon, you’ll be well‑placed to progress into more senior roles.

Our Reliability Maintenance Engineering (RME) team keeps our equipment performing at its best. We're a technically minded team, made up of excellent team players and guided by experienced leaders. We work together to maintain, troubleshoot and repair equipment across our global network of fulfilment centres. From installing systems to overseeing the general maintenance of a site to repairing key distribution equipment, our team handles most aspects of Amazon’s technical side.

This includes keeping buildings legally compliant, so everyone is safe, and our sites are operating at maximum efficiency. There are lots of opportunities for progression, both within the RME team and more widely across Amazon. Everything we do focuses on reducing downtime in Amazon’s crucial operations sites, so customers get their orders on time.
