Castle Employment Group is recruiting for a Multi-Skilled Maintenance Engineer to join a well-established industrial manufacturing site in the Moray area.
This is a fantastic opportunity for an electrically qualified Engineer who enjoys a varied, hands-on role combining electrical and mechanical maintenance with the day-to-day operation of production plant.

The Role
- Carry out electrical and mechanical maintenance, fault finding and repairs across production equipment.
- Operate and monitor plant machinery, ensuring safe and efficient production.
- Diagnose and troubleshoot equipment faults to minimise downtime.
- Support planned maintenance and site improvement initiatives.
- Work closely with the Operations team to achieve production targets.
- Assist with general plant duties, including operating a shovel loader and maintaining good housekeeping standards.
- Maintain high standards of health, safety and operational compliance.
What We’re Looking For
- Electrically qualified Engineer, although mechanically qualified Engineers with strong electrical knowledge will also be considered.
- Experience in maintenance, fault finding and troubleshooting within a manufacturing, industrial or high-volume processing environment.
- Good understanding of both electrical and mechanical equipment.
- Strong awareness of health and safety procedures.
- Comfortable combining hands-on maintenance with plant operation.
- Proactive, reliable and able to work independently or as part of a team.
- Good communication skills and basic IT literacy.
Benefits
- 277.2 hours annual leave, inclusive of public holidays.
- 4% pension contribution, with auto-enrolment after three months.
- 500 annual contribution towards private health insurance.
- Training and development opportunities.
Interested? If you’re an electrically qualified or multi-skilled Engineer looking for a varied position where you can combine your maintenance expertise with hands-on plant operation, we’d be keen to hear from you.
