We are looking for a multi-skilled engineer to join the team in our small (and growing) biscuit bakery on the Isle of Mull. We have a two bedroom flat available in Tobermory ready for re-location if needed. ...

The Island Bakery is one of Scotland's premier manufacturing bakeries, producing a range of Organic biscuits under our own name and for some of the UK's top retailers. We're family-owned and run. 

We are looking for a new engineer to join the team, to keep our machines running and improve how our small factory functions. We need a multi-skilled engineer with a mechanical bias to undertake routine maintenance and reactive repairs, but also to contribute to the continuous improvement of machines and processes.

Initially you would be our sole engineer, but over time you would build a small team that grows alongside our expanding business. 

This is a fantastic opportunity to take up a well-paid and secure job on the Hebridean Isle of Mull. We are located in Tobermory, a thriving community as well as one of Scotland's most picturesque villages.   

Requirements

The successful candidate must be able to undertake minor fabrication, and be able to weld to a high standard. You must have good general mechanical skills, knowledge of pneumatics and some electrical / electronic capability. The broader your skill-set the better! 

Most importantly, you should be a self-motivated team player who can take ownership of our engineering function. Experience of food production would be advantageous, but not essential.

This is a job for someone who is well organised, a creative problem-solver, and an intuitive tinkerer. You will be hands-on implementing creative solutions to immediate problems and long-term goals. 

Degree, HND, or equivalent qualification in engineering. But capability is more important than qualifications.

We can offer a competitive salary, the opportunity to live in a wonderful part of the world, and the chance to contribute to the success of a small growing business.
