Job Description & How to Apply Below
£15.99 per hour | 4 On, 4 Off | 12-Week Temp to Perm
Enjoy solving problems, working with machinery and keeping things running smoothly?
We're recruiting for a Production Process Technician to join a busy manufacturing company in Cheltenham, with the opportunity to secure a permanent position after just 12 weeks.
This isn't your typical production job. You'll be working with large-scale automated machinery that does much of the work itself.
Your role is to make sure everything runs as it should, spot problems before they become bigger issues and help get things back on track when something goes wrong.
If you're practical, enjoy figuring out how things work and like a job that keeps you thinking, this could be the opportunity for you!
What's on offer?
£15.99 per hour
12-week temp-to-perm opportunity
4 on, 4 off shift pattern - 2 days, 2 nights, then 4 days off
12-hour shifts
Regular four-day breaks
Training and support to develop your technical skills
Opportunity to join an established manufacturing team
A varied, hands-on role where no two shifts are quite the same
What will you be doing?
You'll be part of the team responsible for overseeing an automated paper manufacturing process, ensuring machinery runs safely, efficiently and produces a high-quality product.
Your day-to-day responsibilities will include:
Monitoring machinery to make sure production is running smoothly
Identifying and troubleshooting faults when something isn't working as it should
Responding to production issues and helping to get machinery back up and running
Checking product quality and spotting anything that doesn't meet the required standards
Reducing downtime and waste by identifying potential problems early
Supporting machine adjustments, start-ups and shutdowns
Carrying out routine safety and production checks
Working closely with colleagues and maintenance teams to resolve more complex issues
What are we looking for?
We're looking for someone who's switched on, practical and enjoys a challenge.
You'll be a great fit if you:
Have experience in manufacturing, production, machine monitoring or a similar environment
Enjoy problem-solving and working out why things aren't running correctly
Have a good eye for detail and can spot potential issues
Are confident using your initiative and taking responsibility
Can stay calm and think clearly when problems arise
Work well as part of a team
Have a positive attitude towards safety and quality
Are happy working a rotating day and night shift pattern
You don't need to be a qualified engineer or have previous experience in paper manufacturing.
We're particularly interested in people who have worked around machinery or automated production environments and have a natural ability to spot and solve problems.
Why apply?
This is a great opportunity for someone who enjoys the technical side of manufacturing but doesn't necessarily want to work in a traditional engineering or maintenance role.
You'll be working with specialist automated equipment, developing valuable skills and playing an important part in keeping production moving.
With a competitive hourly rate, regular four-day breaks and the opportunity to secure a permanent position after 12 weeks, it's a fantastic chance to take the next step in your manufacturing career.
Interested? Apply today!
If you're practical, reliable and enjoy solving problems, we'd love to hear from you.
