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.

• Confident use of hand and power tools

• Professional when dealing with customers

• Strong communication skills

• Willing and able to travel internationally and work overtime when required

• Full UK driving licence
