Doncaster, United Kingdom FDR Full time

An exciting opportunity has arisen for a Locomotive Fitter to join our team at our Doncaster Roberts Road depot. Progress Rail - Electro Motive Diesel is a subsidiary of Caterpillar, specialized in manufacturing, maintaining and overhauling diesel-electric locomotives across the world. For more than half a century, Electro-Motive Diesel has hauled freight and passengers, powered ships, and generated electricity for over 100 countries around the globe. Becoming a part of the Electro-Motive Diesel means becoming a part of a challenging and bright future in our global marketplace.
Do you enjoy working hands on? Are you willing to get stuck in and help others to get the job done? Do you take pride in finishing work to a high standard and delivering excellent customer satisfaction?
As a Locomotive Fitter, you will play an integral role in providing a 24/7/365 solution for the repair, overhaul, servicing and modifications of a fleet of commercial freight locomotives. If you are a genuine team-player with a proactive approach to task completion and you take pride and responsibility for the quality of your own work, this could be the role for you.
Ideally we are looking for a Fitter that has experience within the rail industry, but with many cross transferable skills the role would suit candidates that are exiting the Armed forces, particularly the REME or those that have experience with servicing large HGV's, buses or trams.
The role will include:
* Carrying out repairs, service and maintenance on locomotives
* Undertaking routine inspections and basic exam tasks
* Assisting loco technicians with fault finding
* Working to ensure the on-time completion of tasks while delivering zero defects and/or warranty claims on own areas of work
* Contributing to the company's continuous improvement activities
* Proactive and effective support of team members in the completion of tasks
* Maintaining a safe, tidy and clean work area
* Acting as a role model to Quality, Health and Safety and Environmental Policies
What we would love you to bring to the role:
* Level 2 in Mechanical Engineering or equivalent
* Driving license (B/ B1)
* Demonstrable history of working effectively with Locomotives or similar heavy plant machinery
* Strong work ethic with a proactive approach to getting tasks done
* A strong communicator with ability to build relationships across the organisation
* Good attention to detail and a logical, analytical and objective approach to problem solving
* High level of professionalism & strong sense of customer satisfaction
* Eager to be adaptable and learn new skills
Shift: An 8-week rota of days and nights. 4 on 5 off, 5 on 4 off
We can offer you: Salary between £29,000 and £33,000 + 20% Shift Allowance.
Plus benefits including: 33 days holiday entitlement, 5% pension contributions, Life assurance scheme, Company sick pay, Medical benefit salary sacrifice scheme, Employee assistance program, Retail discounts, Fuel cards
