About the Role

We’re looking for a talented Automation Engineer to join our team at Brighter Foods X THG Manufacturing. This role will play a key part in the operation of our new automated factory, designing, programming, and testing automated machinery to ensure optimal performance and precision.

You’ll take ownership of automation systems, using your expertise to interrogate PLCs, identify and resolve faults, and enhance process logic. Alongside your technical responsibilities, you’ll also help develop and upskill team members to support the needs of a 24/7 manufacturing operation.

While the core hours are Monday to Friday, occasional out-of-hours support will be required. A strong electrical engineering background is essential, as you’ll also provide hands-on support for electrical breakdowns and fault-finding activities.

Key Responsibilities

  • Maintain and optimise automated machinery to ensure maximum uptime and efficiency.
  • Conduct troubleshooting, fault-finding, and repair of automation and electrical systems.
  • Design and implement custom automation solutions to improve production performance.
  • Deliver measurable improvements in efficiency, reliability, and cost-effectiveness.
  • Programme, configure, and integrate new equipment within existing control systems.
  • Collaborate with OEMs and suppliers to enhance current automation processes.
  • Provide technical guidance and training to support the wider engineering team.
  • Ensure all work is carried out safely and in line with compliance requirements.
  • Perform PLC and electrical diagnostics to identify and resolve system issues.

About You

  • Proven experience working with automated machinery in an FMCG or manufacturing environment.
  • Degree in Engineering, Automation, Electrical Engineering, or a related field.
  • Proficiency in PLC programming (Allen Bradley, Siemens, or similar), and experience with SQL, Python, or Java.
  • Strong problem-solving and analytical skills, with a proactive approach to optimisation and reliability.
  • Experience managing automation or engineering projects is advantageous.
  • A collaborative mindset with a commitment to developing others and driving excellence.

If you’re passionate about automation, innovation, and driving operational excellence in a fast-paced manufacturing environment — we’d love to hear from you.

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.
