We are looking for two candidates on a temp to perm basis to work as Trainee Machine Operators. To be considered, you must have the following credentials:

Starting salary £15.00 per hour with initial quarterly pay reviews according to performance. It is possible to earn £35k - £40k+ on day shift only assuming that the performance is adequate and KPIS are hit, extra with overtime if is available as it is variable.
The work you will be doing is considered ‘high mix, low volume’ therefore there are several changeovers within a day setting the machines for different jobs. And I am looking for Machine Operators to be good problem solvers and willing to work autonomously. Full training will be provided but I am hoping to find someone who is capable and able to pick things up relatively quickly and ‘hit the ground running’.
