BurtononTrent, United Kingdom REED Engineering Full time

**Mechanical Fitter - Rail Locos**
**Burton Upon Trent**
**Good base salary+ good overtime rates, good pension & excellent other benefits**

**INTRODUCTION**
As a world leading engineering company with a proven track record in providing advanced engineered solutions, predominantly to the rail industry (locos, not infrastructure), as well as tunnelling and construction, my client has a history and pedigree that spansmore than a century.
They have developed some novel equipment that is usually attached to locomotive and that provides additional capabilities and functionality to the locos.
Due to an increased workload and a healthy order book, they are now looking to bring in an additional Mechanical Fitter to join their already impressive team.

**THE ROLE**
As a Mechanical Fitter you will:

- Be responsible for fitting components and similar mechanical fitting on a range of rail and associated rail equipment.
- Work from mechanical schematics to ensure the accurate fitting of systems to locomotives and associated systems and associated equipment.
- Carry out mechanical assembly on equipment that will subsequently be fitted to the locos and then fitting this equipment onto the main loco system.
- Carry out some electrical tasks (not electrical work but the mechanical aspect of connecting mechanical parts for the electrical systems); for example, you may be feeding wires through a loco and will need to take off and re-attach internal panels.
- Advise the rest of the team (mechanical, Project teams etc.) on any mechanical issues or suggestions.
- Occasionally go to customer sites to provide on-site fitting and advice to their own teams.

**THE PERSON**
In order to be considered for this Mechanical Fitter role it is expected that you will have:

- Relevant rail loco industry experience and the ability to work alone or as part of a small but enthusiastic team
- Recognised industry qualifications relating to your craft
- An ability to work from mechanical schematics / engineering drawings
- Experience of discussing mechanical fitting matters with colleagues and offering solid advice on best practice
- An ability to work with customer’s engineers, both verbal / written and face to face on site
- An ability to work with multi-disciplined teams
- A good understanding of site and workshop Health and Safety
- Exposure to mechanical fitting on Locomotives, similar rail orientated equipment or off-highway vehicles is a distinct advantage

**THE REWARDS**
In addition to working with one of the world leaders in what they do, you will be rewarded with;
- A good hourly rate / salary based on your skills and experience
- Good overtime rates including significant enhancements if you visit customer’s sites
- Annual bonus
- Optional medical cover
- Good Pension
- 32 days holiday per year (24+8)
- Superb training and career development opportunities
- A fantastic and well-appointed site with superb working conditions
