Overview
Unpack Operative – Inputs (PM Shift)
Location: Corby
Ceramic cores might not be something you think about every day, but they play a vital role in the manufacture of advanced aerospace components. At our Corby site, we produce these precision-engineered cores and supply customers around the world.
We're looking for an Unpack Operative to join our PM Shift team. This is a hands-on production role that keeps materials moving through the manufacturing process safely, accurately and efficiently. It's an important job that helps ensure production runs smoothly and quality standards are maintained.
The Role
This is a practical role for someone who doesn't mind rolling their sleeves up and getting stuck in. You'll be unpacking incoming materials, handling components, preparing inputs for production and supporting the wider team to keep operations running to plan.
It's worth being upfront: this role can be physically demanding. There'll be lifting, working in a dusty environment, and periods where you'll work independently. If you're happiest behind a desk, this probably isn't the role for you.
Responsibilities
What You'll Do
- Unpack, check and prepare incoming materials for production
- Move materials and components safely around the work area
- Follow established production, quality and safety procedures
- Complete routine checks and accurately record required information
- Support housekeeping activities to maintain a clean and organised workspace
- Use breathing apparatus and other required PPE when carrying out specific tasks
- Work closely with colleagues across production to ensure materials are available when needed
- Identify and report any quality, safety or process concerns
