This is not a desk-based energy role.

We’re recruiting a Site Services Engineer to support a major energy and utilities improvement programme within a fast-paced manufacturing environment.

As a Site Services Engineer, you’ll be working on-site alongside maintenance and facilities engineers, focusing on improving how key utilities systems perform — including refrigeration, compressed air, and process equipment. This is a hands-on role with real impact, combining day-to-day engineering improvements with project work.

If you’re a Site Services Engineer or Maintenance Engineer who enjoys getting stuck into plant performance, problem solving, and continuous improvement, this is a great opportunity to step into energy-focused work without losing the hands-on element.

The Role – Site Services Engineer

* Support energy and utilities improvement projects across the site

* Work hands-on with systems including:

* Refrigeration

* Compressed air

* Vacuum systems

* Processing equipment

* Identify inefficiencies and implement practical improvements

* Review plant performance, set points, and operating parameters

* Work closely with maintenance engineers, facilities teams, and contractors

* Support installation, optimisation, and validation of improvements

* Spend time both on the shop floor and in the office (approx. 50/50 split)

About You

* Background as a Site Services Engineer, Utilities Engineer, or Maintenance Engineer

* Experience working with plant and utilities systems (compressors, HVAC, refrigeration, etc.)

* Comfortable working hands-on in a manufacturing environment

* Able to read and interpret technical drawings and schematics

* Practical mindset with a focus on improving performance and efficiency

* Interested in energy, utilities, or continuous improvement projects

Why Apply?

* Opportunity to step into a Site Services Engineer role with a focus on energy and utilities

* Work on a live site improvement programme with clear targets

* Strong mix of hands-on engineering and project work

* Exposure to key manufacturing utilities and systems

* Work alongside experienced engineers and external contractors

* Potential for longer-term opportunities for the right individual

This Site Services Engineer role would suit someone looking to move beyond reactive maintenance into a more project and improvement-focused position, while remaining close to the plant and day-to-day engineering
