Nothing gets made if the line stops, and when it does, a Maintenance Engineer gets the call. 🔧

So this National Engineering Day, we’re giving the people who keep UK manufacturing running something more useful than a round of applause: the true numbers. We surveyed 500+ maintenance engineering professionals about what they actually earn and what it would take for them to move.

Engineers, does your package stack up? Employers, is yours enough to keep your team? Swipe for the headlines and find the full report in the comments. 👇

Guess the Ghost! 👻

For a little Halloween challenge, this week we turned the team into ghosts.

We took everyone's eyes, stuck them onto ghost cutouts and challenged the team to work out who's who. Safe to say, there were some questionable guesses!

Think you've got a good eye for faces? Have a go yourself and let us know how many of our team you can identify!

Happy Halloween from all of us at Stirling Warrington! 🎃

And among those looking for a pay rise, the average expected increase was 11.5%.

For employers, it's worth considering whether your salary offering is competitive enough to attract engineers who are already employed.

🚨 Our 2026 Maintenance Engineer Salary Survey is HERE!

And this year, we've done things a little differently...

For years, our salary reports have looked at what companies are advertising on job boards. But for 2026...we went straight to the source.

We've surveyed over 500 Maintenance Engineering professionals across the UK to find out what they're earning, what benefits they're receiving, whether they're considering leaving and, perhaps most importantly, what it would take to make them move.

And the results are pretty interesting. 👀

💰 £51,040 – The average Maintenance Engineer salary in 2026, excluding overtime and bonuses.

📈 11.5% – The average pay rise expected by engineers who want a salary increase to move jobs.

👀 52% – The proportion of engineers considering a new role.

⚙️ 9.8% – The average salary premium for engineers working shifts compared to those working days.

But that's just scratching the surface.

Our brand new survey breaks down salaries by location, engineering skillset and shift pattern, alongside benefits, job-search intentions and salary expectations.

Whether you're a Maintenance Engineer wondering how your salary stacks up, or an employer trying to attract and retain the right people, this is data worth knowing.

No more guessing what the market is paying. Let's look at what engineers are actually earning.
