If you like your work environment climate-controlled, high-tech, and growing something you can actually see thrive - this one's worth a look.
MorePeople are recruiting a Maintenance Engineer on behalf of a leading glasshouse/greenhouse growing business in Cambridgeshire, known for producing fresh produce on a serious scale using some of the most advanced growing technology in the UK.
Why engineers who've worked in controlled environment growing rate this kind of role:
High-tech, not just hands-on - you'll be maintaining heating, irrigation, climate control, and automation systems, not just spanners and grease.
Genuine variety - mechanical, electrical, plumbing and controls work across a large site, with planned and reactive maintenance in equal measure.
See the results of your work - the systems you maintain directly affect what's growing around you. Tangible, visible impact, every shift.
Scale and investment - a large, modern site with significant ongoing investment in equipment and technology, so you're working with the latest kit, not patching up the old stuff.
A close-knit engineering team - you won't be on your own; you'll be part of a team that knows the site inside out and backs each other up.
What you'll bring:
Experience as a maintenance engineer, ideally within horticulture, food production, or a similar controlled-environment or manufacturing setting
Strong mechanical and electrical fault-finding skills
Comfortable working with heating, irrigation, or automated systems (training available if this is new to you)
A proactive, reliable approach - happy working shifts where required
Full UK driving licence
What's on offer:
Competitive salary, dependent on experience
Stable, long-term role with a well-established grower
Modern site with genuine investment in technology and equipment
A role where you can see the direct impact of your work
If you're a maintenance engineer who wants variety, tech, and a job with real purpose, we'd love to hear from you.
