Job description

Why You Should Apply?

Your Saturdays stay your own

The shift pattern keeps every Saturday free. Spend it with the family, at the match, or catching up on rest after the week.

A rota you can plan around

Shifts are a manageable 8 hours on a set, predictable rotation. You'll always know where you are, so booking holidays, appointments and nights out is simple.

Your Remuneration Package:

• Up to £43,380 a year including shift allowance
• Healthcare
• 5% company pension contribution
• 26 days' holiday plus bank holidays
• Enhanced-rate overtime when available

• Service and set up tools to specification, ready for production with the right equipment and fittings
• Repair tooling using in-house resources and external subcontractors
• Control the spares and materials needed to keep tooling in good order
• Trial new tools and help develop processes with the technical team
