Location: Rotherham (S60)
Salary: £19.13 to £22.60 per hour plus overtime and profit share
Contract: Full-time, permanent
Shifts: Rotating days and nights, 4-day week
Week 1: Monday to Thursday, 6:00am to 4:00pm
Week 2: Monday to Thursday, 8:00pm to 6:00am
4-day working week, long weekends every week, and up to £22.60 per hour.
If you're working five days at the moment, you'll know the difference that makes. This setup gives you full-time hours across four days, with Friday to Sunday off every week.
Alongside that, you're not walking into a stop-start environment. The work is consistent, the shop floor is well set up, and the expectation is simple. Weld it right, keep to standard, and maintain output.
You'll be based in a large, well-invested manufacturing facility in Rotherham, producing components across sectors including defence, rail and heavy engineering.
What the role looks like day to day:
You'll be carrying out MIG welding on a range of materials, working from drawings, and producing parts to required standards. Most of the work is repetitive but still requires attention to detail, consistency, and the ability to maintain quality across your shift.
What you will be doing:
MIG welding on carbon steel, armour steel and aluminium.
Welding a range of joint configurations in different positions.
Setting welding parameters in line with WPS requirements.
Working from engineering drawings.
Meeting production targets while maintaining quality standards.
Carrying out routine maintenance and safety checks on equipment.
Ensuring correct marking and labelling of components.
What they are looking for:
Recent welding or fabrication experience.
Strong MIG welding ability.
Ability to read and understand engineering drawings.
Understanding of quality and production requirements.
Comfortable working in a manufacturing environment.
Good attention to detail and consistency.
Coded welding experience is beneficial but not essential.
This role suits someone who takes pride in their work and can maintain a consistent standard throughout their shift.
Why people move into this role:
You're not stepping into a disorganised workshop. This is a large, established operation with steady work, proper equipment and clear expectations.
The shift pattern gives you a consistent 4-day week, meaning more time outside of work without giving up full-time earnings.
What you get:
£19.13 to £22.60 per hour depending on experience.
Overtime available.
Annual profit share bonus.
33 days holiday including bank holidays.
Company pension.
Life assurance.
Healthcare plan.
Costco membership discount.
Monthly vending allowance.
Reduced gym membership.
Free on-site parking.
