Multi-skilled Maintenance Engineer - Electrical Bias

About CCST CCST is a UK manufacturer of carbon-ceramic brake discs, supplying performance and motorsport markets. Our process runs through chemical vapour infiltration, or CVI, and it lives or dies on uptime. When a machine stops, the plan stops. That's why this role matters.The role We need a Maintenance Engineer with a strong electrical bias to keep our production lines running. PLC and controls knowledge counts for more here than a specific trade ticket. You'll fault find, you'll fix, and you'll help push asset availability in the right direction.Key responsibilitiesWhat you'll be doing- Electrical & controlsDiagnose and repair faults on PLC controlled equipment, drives, sensors and control panels across the CVI and machining lines.Siemens S7 or Allen-Bradley experience is a real advantage here.- Reactive maintenanceFirst response on breakdowns. Get the line back to plan fast, then log the fault properly so the root cause gets fixed, not just the symptom.- Planned maintenanceRun scheduled PM to the plan. Flag anything that threatens OEE or asset availability before it turns into a stoppage.- Mechanical supportThis is an electrical bias role, not electrical only. You'll pitch in on mechanical fault finding when the job needs it.- Continuous improvementContribute to root cause analysis and process improvement. Support management of change properly on any electrical or controls modification, no shortcuts.- Compliance & safetyWork to current electrical safety standards, including safe isolation and lock out tag out. Keep maintenance records and documentation up to date.What you'll bring Essential- Recognised electrical or electronic engineering qualification (NVQ, HNC or equivalent), or a completed time served apprenticeship.- Solid, provable fault finding experience on PLC controlled production machinery.- Working knowledge of 18th Edition wiring regulations.- Comfortable working to a live production plan, under a bit of pressure, without losing accuracy.Desirable- Siemens S7 or Allen-Bradley PLC programming experience.- Background in manufacturing, ideally composites, automotive or aerospace.- Multi-skilled maintenance experience with a mechanical bias.- Experience maintaining robotics or automated production cells.Beyond the ticket box, we're after someone who owns a fault until it's genuinely fixed, not patched. You'll talk plainly with production and quality, and you won't need chasing twice.Next steps This is a hands-on role in a fast moving environment where breakdowns get fixed properly. If that's the kind of problem you like solving, send your CV through to CCST recruitment and we'll take it from there.TPBN1_UKTJ
