About the employer:
We're working with a small engineering manufacturing company who supply industries as wide ranging as Marine, Oil and Gas, Electronics, Renewable Energy Retail, MoD, Agriculture, Architectural Metalwork, Rail Travel, Power Generation and Aerospace. They provide CNC Machining, Laser cut precision sheet metal, Coded Welding/Fabrication, CMM inspection, In-house Powder and Wet painting, Shot-blasting and Assembly/Integration and Testing services. They support their clients in the design, fabrication, engineering and assembly of components.
They use the latest technology, in state of the facilities and have been involved in major, well known projects such as the Queensferry Crossing and BA Heathrow Terminal 5. Their client list is expanding but many of their client's are long-standing; a testament to the quality or work and excellent relationships they build.
About the role:
Our client is looking for a driver to support the team to distribute smaller components via curtain sider and LWB vans across the UK. There may be occasional nights away as a result but the work is planned to minimise this as much as possible. Alongside driving, you can also get involved in the assembly, packaging and dispatch processes.
The team work a compressed week of 39 hours, typically over 4 days but for the drivers, they may need to work an additional half day depending on customer scheduling. However, overtime is available at 1.5 the normal hourly rate (£12.50 - £13.00p.h).
About you:
For our client, they are focused on the attitude of the successful candidate. As such, they are looking to recruit someone who has a good work ethic, who is comfortable moving in a fast paced environment and can think on their feet and take the initiative to support the company. As it's a small team, you'll have the opportunity to get involved in a wide range of activities so flexibility and adaptability will be key.
A full, clean driving license is required.
If you have a Fork Lift truck license, that is advantageous but training will be provided on any equipment required.
