Project Engineer

New Today

This is a great opportunity to step into a delivery-focused role on a regulated manufacturing site with major plans for growth. The facility produces pharmaceutical products for agricultural use, with complex powder-based processes like mixing, fermenting, steaming and drying. Turnover is set to almost double, with capital projects at the heart of that transformation.
As Project Engineer, you’ll lead a wide range of engineering projects from scoping and funding through to commissioning and handover. You’ll work across disciplines, managing suppliers and contractors, and act as a technical contact point for the wider site. Projects typically range from £50K to £2M in value and support everything from compliance upgrades to capacity expansion and plant improvement.
What you’ll be doing
* Delivering end-to-end capital projects across manufacturing and utilities
* Working closely with stakeholders in operations, engineering, EHS and quality
* Managing scope, costs, scheduling and procurement using internal systems (e.g. SAP)
* Overseeing contractor activity and ensuring safe on-site execution
* Supporting commissioning, validation and turnover to operations
* Providing technical input and supporting compliance with COMAH and site engineering standards
* Helping maintain project documentation and ensuring audit readiness
What you’ll need
* Engineering degree (mechanical, electrical, chemical or similar)
* Project delivery experience in a manufacturing or process environment
* Strong organisational and stakeholder management skills
* Understanding of regulated, safety-critical sites (e.g. pharma, COMAH, chemicals)
* Chartered status is a bonus but not essential
* Comfortable working on a busy, active site with a mix of office and plant work
What you’ll get
* £45,000 to £57,000 depending on experience
* 10% bonus
* 37.5 hour working week with flexible hours (10am to 4pm core time)
* Site-based (home working on an ad hoc basis)
* 25 days holiday plus bank holidays (increasing with length of service up to 28 days)
* Option to buy or sell additional holidays
* Pension: 10% employer contribution, plus up to an additional 3% employer match if you contribute a further 3%
* Private medical cover through Bupa
* Life insurance at 8x base salary (flexible up or down)
* Ill health income protection cover
* Access to further flexible benefits through the company benefits platform
