MECHANICAL FITTER - £32,000 + OVERTIME - TELFORD, SHROPSHIRE- 1 STAGE INTERVIEW PROCESS - MULTIPLE NEEDED - SECTOR: INDUSTRIAL MANUFACTURING
Build specialist machinery. Travel internationally. See projects through to completion.
This growing engineering technology company designs and manufactures complex mechanical systems that are installed across the globe. This is not a static workshop position. You will build precision equipment at the manufacturing facility and then support installation and commissioning at customer sites worldwide.
The Role
Reporting to the Manufacturing Manager, you will:
Build mechanical systems and bespoke equipment from detailed engineering drawings
Assemble and integrate precision machinery to high quality standards
Carry out testing, fault finding and diagnostics
Support installation and commissioning at customer sites worldwide
Work to defined timescales while maintaining strict quality standards
Represent the business professionally on customer premises
You will be involved from workshop build through to on site installation, giving you full lifecycle exposure rather than a purely assembly based position.
Why This Role Stands Out
Exposure to technically advanced, bespoke engineered systems
Genuine opportunity for international travel
Involvement in projects from build stage to customer handover
High level of responsibility and ownership
Ongoing training and development, including MEWP and FLT if required
This suits someone who wants variety, accountability and the chance to work beyond the factory floor.
