We are currently recruiting experienced Mechanical Fitters for machine-building projects in the Leeds area.
This is not a basic assembly role — we’re looking for skilled fitters capable of interpreting drawings, fitting and adjusting components, and carrying out precision mechanical build work on complex machinery. You’ll be working as part of a team responsible for the mechanical construction and alignment of bespoke machines and production equipment.
Key Responsibilities:
* Build and fit mechanical assemblies and sub-assemblies from engineering drawings and schematics
* Adjust, align, and fit components to ensure correct operation and tolerances
* Use hand and power tools to carry out fitting, drilling, and minor modifications as needed
* Work to close tolerances in a workshop or site-based environment
* Collaborate with engineering teams to resolve build or fit-up issues
* Ensure all work is carried out safely and to specification
Requirements:
* Proven experience as a Mechanical Fitter (machine building, special purpose machinery, or similar)
* Ability to read and interpret detailed mechanical drawings
* Strong mechanical fitting, alignment, and problem-solving skills
* Own tools and PPE preferred
* CSCS or equivalent card desirable
* Able to work independently and as part of a team
What’s on Offer:
* Competitive hourly rates depending on skills and experience
* Ongoing temporary work with the potential for further projects
If you’re a skilled fitter who takes pride in precision and quality, we’d like to hear from you
