Job Description:

Most engineering roles keep the factory running.
This one keeps the entire site alive.
I'm working with a major UK food manufacturer looking for a Site Services Manager to take ownership of critical utilities, infrastructure and compliance across a high-volume production facility.
If you're the person who understands that steam, refrigeration, water treatment, HVAC, electrical systems and statutory compliance aren't support functions but business-critical operations, keep reading.

You'll lead a specialist Site Services team responsible for ensuring the safe, compliant and efficient delivery of all utilities and engineering services across the site.
This is a role with genuine responsibility. You'll be the go-to expert for critical systems, contractor management, compliance, planned maintenance, energy efficiency and continuous improvement initiatives.
You'll also play a key role in capital projects, business continuity planning and driving operational performance across the wider site.

• Managing site utilities including steam, HVAC, water treatment, gas and electrical systems
• Leading planned preventative maintenance activities
• Ensuring compliance with key legislation and engineering standards
• Managing contractors and specialist service providers
• Driving energy reduction and continuous improvement projects
• Managing budgets, maintenance spend and capital investment projects
• Leading investigations, root cause analysis and corrective actions
• Developing and coaching a high-performing Site Services team

You'll likely come from a food manufacturing, FMCG, processing, utilities or other highly regulated industrial environment.
You'll bring:

• NEBOSH General Certificate
• Strong knowledge of statutory engineering compliance
• Experience managing utilities and critical infrastructure
• Knowledge of pressure systems, legionella, ammonia and confined spaces
• Proven leadership experience within engineering or facilities operations
• The ability to influence stakeholders across all levels of the business

This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced engineering leader who enjoys balancing technical expertise, compliance, people leadership and continuous improvement within a fast-paced manufacturing environment.
