MECHANICAL FITTER - £35,000 + OVERTIME - TELFORD, SHROPSHIRE- 1 STAGE INTERVIEW PROCESS - MULTIPLE NEEDED - SECTOR: INDUSTRIAL MANUFACTURING

Build specialist machinery. Travel internationally. See projects through to completion.

This growing engineering technology company designs and manufactures complex mechanical systems that are installed across the globe. This is not a static workshop position. You will build precision equipment at the manufacturing facility and then support installation and commissioning at customer sites worldwide.

The Role

Reporting to the Manufacturing Manager, you will:

Build mechanical systems and bespoke equipment from detailed engineering drawings

Assemble and integrate precision machinery to high quality standards

Carry out testing, fault finding and diagnostics

Support installation and commissioning at customer sites worldwide

Work to defined timescales while maintaining strict quality standards

Represent the business professionally on customer premises

You will be involved from workshop build through to on site installation, giving you full lifecycle exposure rather than a purely assembly based position.

Why This Role Stands Out

Exposure to technically advanced, bespoke engineered systems

Genuine opportunity for international travel

Involvement in projects from build stage to customer handover

High level of responsibility and ownership

Ongoing training and development, including MEWP and FLT if required

This suits someone who wants variety, accountability and the chance to work beyond the factory floor.
