Job Description

We operate cement import, storage and distribution terminals across the UK & Europe.

Operations:

Execute and oversee unloading; coordinate with vessel and terminal teams for safe, efficient turnarounds.

Maintenance:

Perform preventive and corrective work on bulk-handling assets: conveyors, elevators, air slides, screw feeders, filters, blowers/compressors, packing/dispatch, and the unloader.

Troubleshooting:

Diagnose mechanical, electrical, and pneumatic faults; restore operation quickly. Perform PLC fault-finding as needed (Siemens TIA, SCADA, VFDs, instrumentation).

Projects:

Support installations, commissioning, and upgrades at terminals.

Reliability & HSE:

Lead/assist RCA; drive continuous improvement. Champion LOTO, permit-to-work, risk assessments, emergency drills, and regulatory compliance.

Documentation:

Collaboration & training:

Work with terminal managers, OEMs, and contractors; train operators/technicians on safe use and basic care.

Travel:

Visit other sites as needed (peaks during shutdowns/commissioning).
What you will bring:

Engineering background (Mechanical, Mechatronics, or Electrical). Proven field maintenance experience in industrial plants (bulk materials, ports, cement, aggregates, power or similar). Strong electro-mechanical troubleshooting (motors, gearboxes, sensors, VFDs); basic PLC fault-finding is a plus. A strong HSE mindset; comfortable working at height and in confined spaces; familiar with permit-to-work. Clean UK driving licence and willingness to travel across the UK and Europe. Right to work in the UK.
