### About The Job:

We're currently on the hunt for an Engineering Shift Manager to join our passionate and hardworking team. Reporting into the Senior Engineering Manager, you'll be responsible for leading a team of Automation Engineers in one of the UK's fastest growing food companies!

You'll be expected to drive excellent standards, improve processes and enhance efficiency whilst mentoring your team, to ensure we provide an exceptional product to our hungry customers, each and every delivery.

### What You Will Be Doing:

- Manage and provide leadership to a team of Automation Engineers, Reliability Engineers and Junior Engineers

- Coaching, guiding and mentoring at all levels of the shift

- Develop and implement maintenance procedures and schedule to minimise downtime and maximise equipment reliability

- Identify opportunities for process automation and improvement to enhance operational efficiency and reduce costs

- Conduct regular audits and inspections to identify potential safety hazards and recommend corrective actions

- Coordinate with vendors and suppliers for spare parts, equipment upgrades, and technical support

- Lead route cause analysis processes and continuous improvement projects

- Monitor key performance indicators (KPIs), analyze data, and identify opportunities for process improvement and optimization

### Who You Are:

- Strong knowledge of automation systems, material handling equipment, and warehouse management systems

- Excellent communication and interpersonal skills with stakeholders cross functionally

- Strong and evident leadership and people management experience

- Knowledge of safety regulations and procedures in a warehouse or manufacturing environment

- Proven experience in a supervisory or managerial role in an automated manufacturing or distribution center environment

- Strong problem-solving and decision-making abilities

- Good understanding of data reporting to the business

Next steps: Your application will be reviewed and if successful, a member of the Talent Acquisition Team will be in touch within 2 weeks.

To be considered for this role, you’ll need to have the independent right to work in the UK, as we're unfortunately unable to provide sponsorship at this time.

You are required to cooperate with HelloFresh in all health and safety matters. You are responsible for ensuring you take reasonable care of your own health, and safety as well as others who may be affected by the work activities you undertake. You must report incidents immediately and actively raise health and safety-related concerns to your Line Manager. As part of our commitment to maintaining a safe and secure environment, we will process Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) checks to the successful individual. Failure to disclose relevant information at application or throughout the process could affect your employment with the company.

**Live in Hellofresh’s hiring system.** Read from the company's own applicant tracking system, not reposted from a job board — so it's a real, open requisition rather than an ad that outlived the role.

We remove it as soon as it disappears at source.
