This is a proper hands on role in a heavy engineering environment, working with heat treatment, crane handling, FLTs, saws and classified rotating shaft components.

You'll be working in the Engineered Products team, helping heat treat specialist alloy components, cut material to length, take samples and support general movement of product through the department. The role suits someone who is confident around machinery, follows instructions properly and takes safety seriously.

What you'll be doing:

• Operating overhead cranes and FLTs to move a range of heavy products
• Working to technical heat treatment instructions
• Programming furnace control systems
• Operating Brinell testing equipment
• Assisting with large and small saws
• Updating bookings on the SFDC system
• Carrying out daily compliance checks
• Supporting dispatch and keeping the area organised

The right person will have experience in a manufacturing, engineering, steel, forge, foundry or heavy industrial setting. Overhead crane and FLT experience would be a big advantage.

You don't need to be the finished article, but you do need to be reliable, switched on and comfortable working to high standards around safety, quality and process.

This would suit someone who takes pride in doing the job properly, turns up on time, works well with the team and is happy to get stuck in.
