Mechanical Fitter

Join a growing engineering business building bespoke friction welding machinery supplied to customers across the UK and Europe. This is an opportunity to be involved in the full build and installation process of highly specialised machines, working on complex mechanical assemblies and seeing projects through from the workshop floor to final installation onsite.

The role offers a varied mix of workshop-based machine build and occasional international travel, with opportunities every couple of months to visit customer sites across Europe to help install, upgrade and commission machinery. It’s a great opportunity for someone who enjoys hands-on mechanical work but also likes the idea of getting out to client sites and being involved in the final stages of major engineering projects.

You will be involved in:

• Building and assembling bespoke machine units including spindles, clamps, pneumatics, hydraulics and lubrication systems
• Reading and working from mechanical assembly drawings, pneumatic and hydraulic schematics
• Installing and commissioning machinery both in the UK and overseas
• Working closely with engineering and design teams throughout projects
• Using workshop machinery including mills, lathes and grinders
• Supporting machine upgrades, repairs and continuous improvement projects
• Inspecting precision components and ensuring high assembly standards throughout builds

This is an excellent opportunity to join a specialist engineering company where no two projects are the same, offering long-term development, technical variety and the chance to travel internationally as part of the role.
