Join a Thriving, Forward-Thinking Company

Step into a future-focused food production business that’s part of one of Ireland’s largest and most respected retail groups. With a team of 170+ and a reputation for quality beef, lamb, and pork products, this company offers genuine career stability, development, and day-one impact in a fast-moving environment.

Your Role: Mechanical Maintenance Technician

In this hands-on role, you’ll be the go-to problem solver keeping essential production lines running at peak performance. This isn’t just another maintenance job — it’s a high-responsibility position with real ownership.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Perform mechanical repairs on high-speed packing, automation, and complex electro/mechanical/pneumatic systems

  • Work closely with production to keep operations smooth and efficient

What You’ll Bring to the Table:

  • Fully or partially qualified in a mechanical trade (e.g., Fitter, Motor Mechanic, Maintenance Technician)
  • Strong all-round mechanical skills and the ability to read technical drawings
  • Familiarity with automation systems and modern production environments
  • A flexible approach to rotating early start times (7am and 4am shifts)

Open to motor mechanics looking to switch gears into the production world and kickstart a longer-term career in manufacturing.
