Production​/Maintenance​/Repair​/Facilities Supervisor​/Lead Reliability, Maintenance

Responsibilities

• Proactive and preventative maintenance tasks on a wide range of site equipment
• Carry out reactive repairs and fault diagnosis in a live distribution warehouse
• Use the latest tools to maximise equipment effectiveness
• Uphold all health and safety policies and practices
• Support the development and progression of on‑site apprentices
• Work on continuous improvement projects and roll out best practices across a range of EU sites

In every shift you will be leading a team to ensure everyone has the equipment they need and that it is running properly. This involves monitoring processes so that regulations and policies are followed and ensuring that preventative maintenance is carried out to increase equipment uptime.

With everything you observe on your shifts, you will suggest improvements to make our systems more efficient and productive and then implement those improvements across an EU‑wide function. You will 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 will work shift patterns, which may include some weekends and nights. As you develop your experience within this part of Amazon, you will be well‑placed to progress into more senior roles.

Our Reliability Maintenance Engineering (RME) team keeps our equipment performing at its best. We are 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 automated packaging systems to overseeing general site maintenance and 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. We often work during early or late hours to carry out maintenance with minimal disruption, including night shifts. If we spot a better way to do something, we have the skills and the opportunity to develop and introduce completely new processes or cutting‑edge technology like Amazon Robotics and our Complex Item Sorter.
