Engineering Manager

Peaple Talent
Ealing, Greater London

If you’re the kind of Engineering Manager who thrives on solving complex problems, inspiring teams, and leaving a lasting mark on a business, this role puts you in the driving seat. You’ll have the influence, autonomy, and resources to shape engineering strategy, drive real performance improvements, and lead a culture of excellence, all in a fast-paced, forward-thinking environment. The Role:

  • Lead and inspire a multi-shift engineering team to deliver exceptional maintenance, reliability, and efficiency across all site equipment.
  • Develop and deliver the site’s engineering strategy, including CAPEX projects, asset renewal, and continuous improvement initiatives.
  • Drive operational excellence with robust planned, preventative, and reactive maintenance strategies to minimise downtime.
  • Champion a strong safety culture, ensuring compliance with all relevant regulations and standards.
  • Work collaboratively with production, quality, and other site teams to ensure engineering fully supports smooth manufacturing operations.
  • Manage budgets, negotiate with suppliers, and ensure cost-effective, high-quality engineering solutions.
About you:
  • Proven track record in engineering management within food manufacturing or FMCG.
  • Strong leadership skills with experience managing multi-shift teams and contractors.
  • Excellent knowledge of maintenance systems, Lean principles, and continuous improvement tools.
  • Confident managing budgets, delivering CAPEX projects, and influencing at senior level.
  • Electrical or mechanical engineering qualifications (NVQ Level 3 or above) and relevant H&S training (IOSH Managing Safely, PUWER, etc.).
This isn’t just a maintenance job — it’s a chance to lead engineering for a cutting-edge food manufacturer, shape the future of the site, and deliver results that really move the needle
