We value innovative thinking and are committed to integrity, performance, and customer satisfaction.

Why Join Us?
This is more than just a job—it's an opportunity to elevate your skills and grow your career in a dynamic, high-performance environment. As a key member of our team, you'll contribute to building units from the basic core, from kits provided (tanks). Tanks need fabrication to fit onto the core. These components will be expertly welded, rigorously tested, and inspected to meet our high-quality standards.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Read and interpret engineering drawings and assembly guidelines to complete tasks with precision.
  • Assemble and test products at various stages of production – Air under water and a safety proof test.
  • Collaborate with team members to meet project goals and deadlines.
  • Support continuous improvement initiatives, such as ACE activities (5S, TPM, Turnbacks, and Clinics).
  • Maintain traceability of materials and adhere to rigorous quality control standards.
  • Pursue ongoing training, including welding certification requirements.
  • Keep the workspace clean, organized, and compliant with company standards.
  • Follow all Environmental Health & Safety (EH&S) requirements.

Shifts:

  • Morning: 6:00 AM–1:45 PM (Monday–Thursday) and 6:00 AM–12:00 PM (Friday).
  • Afternoon: 2:00 PM–10:00 PM (Monday–Thursday) and 12:15 PM–5:15 PM (Friday).

There may be a possibility of moving to night shifts. Ample notice will be provided if required.

Essential Criteria

  • NVQ Level 2, City & Guilds Level 2, or a similar vocational qualification in fabrication, mechanical, or engineering (equivalent experience will also be considered)
  • Proficiency with precision tools such as Vernier calipers, digital calipers, or measuring gauges.
  • Strong attention to detail and problem-solving abilities.
  • Demonstrated experience in hand fabrication and sheet metal work.
  • Proven ability to meet high tolerance standards e.g to a thousandth of an inch

Desirable Criteria

  • Experience in aerospace, motorsport, or similar industries is advantageous but not required.

Required Security Clearance:
This role may involve access to export-controlled information and hardware. An export license may be required to comply with applicable laws and regulations. Employment is contingent upon satisfactory security checks, export license approval, and, if applicable, the completion of a non-disclosure agreement.

What We Offer:

  • 25 days of annual leave, plus 9 public holidays.
  • Competitive compensation package.
  • Opportunities for professional development and career growth.
  • Support for professional fees.
  • Employee Assistance Programme (EAP).
  • Comprehensive healthcare benefits, including a healthcare cash plan.
  • Employee discounts.
  • Work/life balance programs.
  • Wellness programs.
  • Employee recognition schemes.
  • Referral bonus program.
  • Free on-site parking.
