* Supporting with occasional site installations, servicing and other engineering activities when required.

The Candidate:

* Previous experience as a Mechanical Fitter, Assembly Fitter or similar.

* Strong hands-on mechanical fitting and assembly skills.

* Confident using a range of hand tools.

* Able to read and interpret engineering and assembly drawings.

* A genuine understanding of mechanical fitting techniques rather than purely following assembly instructions.

* Experience working with stainless steel and mild steel.

* Comfortable working on sub-assemblies through to complete bespoke machinery builds.

* Excellent attention to detail and a strong focus on quality.

* Good understanding of health & safety within an engineering environment.

* A recognised mechanical engineering qualification or time-served apprenticeship would be advantageous.
