Abbott is about the power of health. For more than 135 years, Abbott has been helping people reach their potential — because better health allows people and communities to achieve more. Joining us, you can shape your career as you shape the future of healthcare.
With a diverse, global network serving customers in more than 160 countries, we create new solutions — across the spectrum of health, around the world, for all stages of life. Whether it’s next-generation diagnostics, life-changing devices, science-based nutrition, or novel reformulations, we are advancing some of the most innovative and revolutionary technologies in healthcare, helping people live their best lives through better health.
The Opportunity
As a result of strong business growth, industry-leading product development in the biosensor business and a long-term commitment to high volume manufacturing in Witney, we have opportunities for multi-skilled Support Engineers to join our Operations Group, supporting manufacturing operations across our business through performing Preventive Maintenance activities, responding effectively to breakdowns, monitoring equipment performance and providing valuable input to help maintain process yields and efficiencies. Our Support Engineers also provide assistance to the Projects Team in implementing changes to equipment. Working at Abbott, you can help shape the future of healthcare whilst shaping your career.
Working in a clean room or controlled environment, you will provide technical expertise to fault find, maintain and continually improve bespoke automated equipment and processes. Our current vacancies support our 4 on 4 off Days and Nights rotating pattern, or 4 on 4 off Nights.
About You
To be successful, you will need experience of Engineering within a manufacturing environment, specifically experience and skills in set-up of precision assemblies, the use of machine tools, fault finding and problem solving. You will need to have completed a recognised Engineering apprenticeship or have a higher education qualification (such as a ONC, HNC, HND or degree) in a related subject.
Continuous Improvement is an important part of our site’s culture, so you will also have the opportunity to propose and contribute to initiatives and projects that improve our operations. You will also be required to demonstrate the ability to effectively communicate with your peers and other departments and to maintain a high standard of record keeping as required by our stringent quality systems. At Abbott, you can work with great people, helping our patients and customers to thrive.
Experience With Any Of The Following Would Be An Advantage, But Is Not Essential As, Due To The Bespoke Nature Of Our Equipment, In-house Training Will Be Given
This is a fantastic opportunity to become a valued member our highly skilled Engineering team working with brand new state-of-the-art automation in a fast-growing area of our business. Engineering skill is key to us, with members working in areas including projects, process, production, systems, software, R&D and machine vision.
