Who we are

As the UK’s leading beer, cider and pub business, we’re home to some of the world’s best-loved beers and ciders, and a leading player in the international drinks industry.

We're the name behind a host of brilliant brands, from Inch’s to Birra Moretti and many more. And with around 2,400 pubs to our name in the UK, our Star Pubs business is all about putting pubs at the centre of community life.

But we’re more than just great beers and ciders – we’re a place where passion meets purpose, careers are crafted as carefully as our brews, and enjoyment of life is part of the job.

About the role

As the Technician, you’ll work within our bottling line of production; we support the production of approximately 4.2 mhl per year brewing and packaging some of the nation’s favourite brands, so we need to make sure our machinery is in top condition! Our technicians utilise their proactivity to identify any abnormalities on the plant; to mitigate any downtime of production whilst also working to support colleagues directly on the shop floor and monitor the overall performance of the production line. Your day to day will vary, but at its core you will:

• Perform corrective and reactive maintenance to address defects, losses and breakdowns.
• Diagnose and resolve electrical, automation and mechanical faults, ensuring minimal downtime.
• Lead root cause analysis (RCA) and implement lasting countermeasures, including risk assessments, positive interventions, safety tags, near-miss reporting and 5S activities.
• Drive Total Productive Maintenance (TPM) initiatives to eliminate losses and promote lean practices.
• Plan and coordinate maintenance activities with Maintenance colleagues, Operators and Technician’s to maximise production reliability.
• Support and guide shop-floor operators, delegating tasks when required to maintain smooth production.
• Collaborate with operators on autonomous maintenance (AM) tasks and assist the shift manager with asset-related issues affecting performance.
• Identify and record non-conformities in the CMMS to support continuous improvement.
• Maintain high standards of equipment cleanliness and reliability, contributing to site objectives for safety, quality, cost and service.
• Champion and uphold HSE standards to maintain a safe, clean and compliant working environment.
