RJN Engineering Selection

Plant and process engineering covers the maintenance of the equipment and systems that support continuous industrial operations. This can include production plant, process machinery, utilities and essential services that keep a site operating.

These environments often require engineers who understand how individual machines, process systems and supporting equipment work together.

​

RJN Engineering Selection recruits engineers responsible for maintaining industrial plant and process equipment across manufacturing and process industries.

​

Typical job roles

​

Depending on the operation, roles may include:

​

• Plant Engineer

• Process Maintenance Engineer

• Utilities Engineer

• Mechanical Plant Engineer

• Electrical Plant Engineer

• Multi-Skilled Plant Engineer

• Facilities or Utilities Maintenance Engineer

• Instrument Technician

​

Industries and working environments

​

Plant and process engineering roles can be found in industries such as:

​

• Food and beverage processing

• Chemical and materials manufacturing

• Metals and steel processing

• Glass and ceramics production

• Building materials and brick manufacturing

• Paper and tissue production

• Plastics and polymer processing

• Industrial treatment and specialist process operations

​

Equipment may include pumps, valves, pipework, process vessels, compressors, boilers, refrigeration systems, furnaces, kilns, filtration systems and other plant utilities.

​

How we help employers

​

Plant and process environments can have specific technical requirements, particularly where production depends on the availability of utilities, process equipment or specialist machinery.

​

We work with employers to establish the experience required, including the types of plant involved, the systems engineers will maintain and the technical demands of the site. This helps us identify candidates whose capabilities are relevant to the operation.

​

How we help engineers

​

Plant and process engineering offers opportunities to work with complex equipment and systems across a range of industrial environments. The experience gained can also be transferable between industries where similar equipment, processes and maintenance skills are used.

​

We help engineers explore roles that match their technical background, preferred environment and longer-term career plans.
