- TIG welding stainless steel pipes and brackets to a high standard
- Welding mild steel pipe supports
- Cutting, grinding, and carrying out general fabrication tasks
- Reading and interpreting detailed engineering drawings
- Maintaining a high level of finish and workmanship
- Working closely with a skilled workshop team to meet deadlines
- Ensuring all work meets strict safety and quality standards
What we’re looking for:
- Proven TIG welding experience (stainless steel is essential)
- Level 4 Welding Certificate and relevant welding tickets
- Strong ability to read and work from technical drawings
- High attention to detail and pride in your work
- Solid workshop fabrication experience
