We are looking for an experienced Fabricator or Production Operative to join our manufacturing team in Batley.

JADE is part of Woodlands Home & Garden Group, a British manufacturing business employing around 300 people across Yorkshire and Scotland. This provides greater stability, development opportunities and the support of a growing group of businesses.

You will help manufacture aluminium and uPVC windows and doors for residential, trade and commercial customers.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Measuring, cutting, preparing and assembling window and door components
• Manufacturing aluminium and uPVC windows and doors
• Reading production drawings, specifications and job sheets
• Fitting glass, hardware, locks, handles and other components
• Operating fabrication machinery, equipment and hand tools
• Checking finished products for quality and accuracy
• Reporting defects, material issues and equipment faults

• A strong focus on quality and safety
• A reliable and responsible approach to work
• The ability to work independently and as part of a team
• The ability to work efficiently without compromising quality
• A willingness to learn and support other production activities

Experience working with both aluminium and uPVC would be an advantage. However, we welcome applications from people who have strong experience in either material and are willing to develop their skills.

We would also be interested in hearing from experienced window installers, joiners or manufacturing operatives whose practical skills could transfer into fabrication.

• Competitive pay based on your experience
• Early finish every Friday
• Consistent weekday working hours
• Training and opportunities to develop your skills
• Long-term career opportunities within Woodlands Home & Garden Group

This is an excellent opportunity for someone who enjoys practical work and takes pride in producing a quality finished product.

If you have experience in window and door fabrication, installation or a similar manufacturing role, we would like to hear from you.

Please include details of your relevant fabrication, manufacturing or installation experience and confirm when you would be available to start.
