Role Overview

An excellent opportunity for an experienced, multi-skilled Welder Fabricator to join a busy engineering and fabrication business in Oldham.

  • 10% employer pension contribution (5% employee contribution)
  • £40,000 life insurance
  • 25 days holiday + bank holidays

  • Strong TIG welding skills, ideally on stainless steel and aluminium
  • Strong MIG welding skills, including multi-run welds
  • Experience of, or willingness to develop, root run MIG welding to full penetration
  • Ability to read and interpret engineering drawings and specifications
  • Fabrication skills: marking out, preparation, measuring, grinding, drilling and finishing
  • Experience with press brakes or other fabrication machinery would be advantageous
  • Ability to safely use fabrication and lifting equipment where trained
  • Practical, problem‑solving approach and the flexibility to turn your hand to a variety of tasks
  • Reliable, proactive and able to work effectively as part of a team
Main Duties
  • TIG and MIG welding of fabricated components across a range of materials
  • Fabricating, aligning and tack-welding components to drawings and specifications
  • Setting up and safely operating welding and fabrication equipment
  • Carrying out preparation, grinding, drilling, polishing and finishing work
  • Measuring and checking components to ensure they meet required specifications
  • Maintaining high standards of quality, safety and housekeeping
