We’re looking for an experienced Aluminium Fabricator to join our workshop team, building commercial aluminium swing and sliding door sets.

• Assembly & Glazing
  Assemble swing and sliding door sets to a high standard of finish, including glazing, and prepare completed units for delivery to site.
• Quality & Accuracy
  Take ownership of the quality of your work, checking finished door sets against drawings and specifications before they leave the workshop.
• Workshop Collaboration

• You demonstrate strong attention to detail. You’re accurate, methodical, and focused on quality of finish.

• Experience working with Jack Aluminium commercial door profiles (JD47 and TD68).
• Qualified to operate a counterbalance forklift (Category B1).

• 37.5 working hours per week
