Job description

Mechanical Fitter - Runcorn

Up to £40K basic + overtime, bonus, pension & more!

Mon-Fri, 37 hours (On-call 1 week in 4 - don't worry, we won't call just to chat.)

About the Job

Love taking things apart and actually putting them back together (correctly)? Got a soft spot for industrial transmissions? Then step right up! We need a Mechanical Fitter to keep things spinning, whirring, and NOT exploding.

Your Mission (Should You Choose to Accept It)
  1. Strip, assess & rebuild transmissions, gearboxes, and other rotating kit (no duct tape allowed).
  2. Use micrometers, internal mics & DTI gauges like a pro.
  3. Visit customer sites to fix things (and maybe impress them with your toolkit).
  4. Follow safety rules—because fire drills are only fun in school.
  5. Write root cause reports (translation: explain why it broke in a way non-engineers understand).

What We're Looking For
  1. Experience fixing all kinds of pumps (if you can name them, we're impressed).
  2. Ability to measure things properly (no “looks about right” here).
  3. Knows bearing & bore fits, laser alignment and how to read engineering drawings.
  4. NVQ Level 3 or equivalent (fancy paper that says you know your stuff).
  5. A driving licence (sadly, teleportation isn't an option yet).

If you like big engineering and you cannot lie, hit APPLY NOW before someone else does.
