Weekend Welding Inspector (PCN Level 2)
Verus Recruitment
Easy apply
Location: Rotherham
Salary: £17.51 per hour (circa £31,412.94 per annum based on 34.5 hours)
Contract: Full-time, permanent
Hours: Friday to Sunday, 6:00am to 6:00pm
Most people still work five days.
This role doesn’t. You work Friday to Sunday, then you’re off for four full days before starting again.
If you’re used to a full working week, this is just a different way of structuring it. Same type of work, just with more time away from it.
In most fabrication environments, inspection only happens at the end of the process. By that point, issues are harder to resolve and quality can suffer, leaving inspectors picking up problems rather than preventing them.
This role is different. You will be involved throughout the fabrication process, helping maintain standards as work moves through production rather than checking it after the fact. The work is consistent, expectations are clear, and you’re there to maintain standards rather than firefight problems.
You will be working in a large, well-established manufacturing facility in Rotherham, supporting fabrication across sectors including defence, rail and heavy engineering.
What the role looks like day to day:
You will be on the shop floor and in the documentation, checking weld quality, reviewing procedures and supporting fabrication teams to keep everything to standard.
What you will be doing:
- Monitoring QA and QC activities across fabrication
- Reviewing WPS, PQR and WPQ documentation
- Carrying out visual weld inspections and dimensional checks
- Reviewing and endorsing NDT reports
- Supporting welding teams with technical advice
- Prescribing and monitoring weld repairs
- Verifying correct use of NDT methods
- Completing inspection records and documentation
- Reviewing inspection and test plans and final fabrication packs
- PCN Welding Inspector Level 2 or equivalent is essential
- PCN Level 2 MPI or DPI is preferred
- Experience in welding inspection within fabrication
- Understanding of QA and QC processes
- Comfortable working on the shop floor and with documentation
- Good communication skills and attention to detail
- IT literate including Microsoft Office
What you get:
- £17.51 per hour
- 3-day working week with 4 days off every week
- 33 days holiday including bank holidays
- Company pension
- Life assurance
- Healthcare plan
- Free on-site parking
- Reduced gym and Costco membership
- Referral bonus scheme
- Ongoing training and development
