Orkney | Join our growing team
Looking for a change of pace, a better quality of life and the opportunity to put your skills to work across a diverse range of industries?
Ocean Kinetics is looking for an experienced Workshop Supervisor/Foreman to join our team in Orkney.
Working with clients across some of the islands' key industries – from aquaculture and fishing to renewable energy, whisky and agriculture – no two projects are quite the same. It’s a role that offers the opportunity to work across the company, take responsibility for a varied range of projects and play an important part in developing the next generation of skilled workers.
What we’re looking for:- Proven experience in fabrication and/or welding (coding qualifications would be beneficial)
- Strong workshop and site-based experience
- Good leadership, organisational and problem-solving skills
- Experience mentoring and training apprentices
- The ability to work confidently both independently and as part of a team
- A practical, can-do approach and pride in delivering quality work
- The right to work in the UK.
Orkney offers something that’s increasingly hard to find – a great place to build a career without compromising on quality of life. Stunning scenery, a strong community, easy access to the outdoors, and a pace of life that makes your time away from work particularly enjoyable.
If you are an experienced fabricator or welder ready for your next challenge, and would like to combine a rewarding career with life in one of Scotland’s most desirable island communities, we would love to hear from you.
(A relocation package is included.)
