Do you take pride in producing high-quality work and enjoy seeing a job through from start to finish? We're looking for a Welder / Fitter to join our Production team in Blackpool, helping to manufacture and assemble components that keep our vehicles operating at their best. Working as part of a skilled and supportive team, you'll use your fabrication, fitting and welding expertise to build and assemble components to specification, ensuring every product meets our quality and safety standards.
What You'll Be Doing
- Welding and fabricating mild steel and stainless steel components using MIG welding techniques
- Interpreting engineering drawings, technical specifications and work instructions
- Preparing materials and assembling fabricated components and structures
- Carrying out fitting and installation work within the workshop environment
- Inspecting your own work, identifying defects and ensuring quality standards are maintained
- Supporting a "right first time" approach and helping to prevent faults moving through the production process
- Maintaining a safe, organised work area and following all health and safety procedures
- Working collaboratively with colleagues and supporting continuous improvement activities across the production team
Be part of something new
We're investing in the future of our Blackpool operation and are looking for people who want to be part of that journey.
We'll be relocating manufacture of our BETA bin lift from Warwick to Blackpool at the end of 2026, creating an exciting opportunity to join the team during this transition. To help you build the skills and knowledge needed for success, during your first three months, training will take place between our Warwick and Blackpool manufacturing locations, working alongside our experienced production team in Warwick before returning to Blackpool as the project progresses.
This is a rare opportunity to play a key role in a significant manufacturing expansion and help shape the future of production at our Blackpool site.
