The posting

Company Description

Here at Gousto, we are on a mission to become the UK's most loved way to eat dinner, and for every meal to leave the planet better off. Gousto is changing how people shop, cook and eat food at home. It’s an incredibly exciting time to join our team - and we’re a friendly bunch!

We’re proud to be one of the fastest-growing companies in the UK. Powered by data and a love of food, we’re a recipe box company that’s disrupting the sector, and we’re passionate about our diverse team and our customers.

All of our people are responsible for the success of Gousto, and we’re passionate about creating an inclusive environment for all to thrive. Our guiding values - Dream, Deliver and Care - show our commitment to innovation, our ambition to hit goals at speed, and our deep respect for the people we work with.

Job Description

As our Lead Multi-Skilled Engineer, your engineering expertise will be the backbone of our daily production process. You will take ownership of shift-based engineering operations, balancing hands-on breakdown support with technical leadership.

By driving planned preventative maintenance (PPM) and guiding a talented team of engineers, you will ensure our production lines maintain the highest levels of productivity, safety, and reliability.

What you’ll do:

  • Team Leadership: Lead the Engineering team on shift. You will oversee their training programs, manage time-off schedules, support Personal Development Plans (PDPs), and actively contribute to bi-annual performance reviews
  • Maintenance & CMMS Management: Utilize our Computerised Maintenance Management System (CMMS) to plan, track, and manage all preventative maintenance activities and stock control, ensuring maximum system availability
  • Safety & Compliance: Champion site safety standards by completing regular factory audits and strictly managing contractor control using Permit to Work (PTW) and Lockout-Tagout (LOTO) processes
  • Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner closely with live Operational teams to identify, troubleshoot, and resolve issues on the floor. You will also proudly represent the Engineering function during daily site team huddles
  • Continuous Improvement (CI): Utilize Root Cause Analysis (RCA) and FMEA methodologies to diagnose, isolate, and completely eliminate repeatable faults, sharing your findings openly across our wider engineering network
  • Supply Chain & Mentorship: Liaise directly with external suppliers to procure components and ensure correct technical specifications. On-site, you will mentor and develop our Engineering Support Operatives to build future talent

What you’ll bring:

  • Leadership Experience: Proven experience leading, developing, and inspiring engineering teams in a fast-paced environment
  • Systems Fluency: Demonstrable hands-on experience working with CMMS platforms and digital parts-ordering workflows
  • Analytical Problem Solving: A logical approach to data analysis, allowing you to diagnose engineering issues, trace root causes, and optimize asset performance
  • Excellent Communication: Strong stakeholder management skills with the ability to bridge the gap between technical engineering and daily factory operations
  • Technical Rigor: Incredible attention to detail, a strong composure when working toward tight deadlines, and high digital literacy (particularly across Google Suite)

Gousto is for everyone: Whether it’s creating diversity in our recipes or building new teams, we care about our people and the opportunities they have at Gousto. Across our business we lead with inclusivity and strive for equity in all we do; working hard to ensure Gousto is an environment where you can be totally yourself.

Everyone is welcome and we’re looking for applications from people of all backgrounds and experiences.

Excited but wondering if you tick every box? We recommend applying anyway so that we can review your profile. And, if you’re in a job share, why not just apply as a pair.

For our roles outside of Operations, most of our people spend 1 or 2 days in our offices every week, combining the benefits of flexibility and time together with colleagues. We want to enable you to do your best work, and if you require additional flexibility, please talk to us about it.

If you have a disability that you’re worried will affect you during the interview process, please let us know and we will do our best to help you feel comfortable.

We’d love it if you could submit your application online. If you require an alternative method of applying, please let us know.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
