Electrical Engineer

Electrical Maintenance Engineer
Rhayader £39,000 to £40,000 per annum

What you'll do:
You'll be joining a busy heavy manufacturing site where no two days are the same. This role offers genuine variety, working across the entire facility rather than being tied to a single production line. Your responsibilities will include:

• Planned preventative and reactive electrical maintenance across the site
• Responding to breakdowns and carrying out effective fault finding on industrial machinery
• Working with motors, contractors, relays, sensors, overloads, drives and inverters
• Supporting electrical project work, including panel wiring and new installations
• Maintaining site services such as lighting, fire alarms, sprinkler systems and ring mains
• Providing basic mechanical support as part of a multi-skilled engineering team

To succeed in this role, you'll need a strong electrical background and a hands‑on approach. You'll ideally have:

• Time‑served experience as an Electrical Engineer or Electrician
• Background in a manufacturing, industrial or heavy engineering environment
• Solid knowledge of three‑phase and single‑phase systems, motor control circuits and safety circuits
• Experience fault finding on panels, field wiring and industrial electrical systems
• A proactive attitude and willingness to get involved across a varied workload
• The right mindset to learn, develop and grow within a stable engineering team

Experience with PLCs, hydraulics, pneumatics or drives would be an advantage, but is not essential.

This is a great opportunity to join a well‑invested manufacturing business with long‑term stability and ongoing site projects. You'll benefit from:

• Competitive salary of £39,000 to £40,000
• Overtime paid at time and a half during the week and Saturdays
• Double time on Sundays
• 244 hours holiday inclusive of bank holidays
• Ongoing training and development
• Clear progression opportunities into Leading Hand or Team Leader roles
