6. Promote a culture of safety, quality, and continuous improvement on the shop floor.
7. Support with H&S validations and ad hoc training duties as required.
What You'll Need:
8. Strong welding or chassis fabrication background (experience with spec sheets and chassis drawings essential).
9. Excellent communication skills and a desire to mentor and support others.
10. Organised and confident with basic IT tools (e.g., Microsoft Office).
11. A team-focused, proactive mindset with attention to quality and safety.
12. Comfortable working on the production floor in a hands-on environment.
