Machine Operator – Full Training Provided

Southwest England £13.50/hr + regular overtime at 150% (typical earnings £33,000–£45,000) Permanent, Full-Time – Monday to Friday – No weekend work

About the Role

Are you hands-on, mechanically minded and looking for a long-term career, rather than just another job?

We are looking for a Machine Operator to join our growing production team. You don't need years of machine operating experience – full training will be provided. What matters most is that you're practical, confident using tools and equipment, willing to learn and enjoy working with machinery.

You'll learn to operate modern production machinery, develop valuable technical skills and become an important part of a highly skilled manufacturing team.

If you enjoy fixing things, understanding how machines work and seeing the results of your work at the end of a shift, this could be the role for you.

The Company

We are a respected, family-run manufacturer of corrugated packaging, supplying customers across multiple industries for over 30 years.

We are continuing to grow and invest in modern machinery, people and training, creating long-term opportunities for employees who want to develop their skills and progress within the business.

We pride ourselves on high standards, teamwork, a supportive working environment and long-term job security.

This is an opportunity to join a business where you can learn a skilled trade, increase your earning potential and build a genuine career in manufacturing.

Key Responsibilities

Set up, operate and monitor modern corrugated packaging machinery
Follow company SOPs and health & safety procedures
Adjust machine settings to achieve the best possible output and quality
Identify and troubleshoot minor machine issues
Carry out quality checks and complete production documentation
Use basic maths for measurements, calculations and machine settings
Handle materials, tooling and equipment safely and efficiently
Carry out weekly PPM (planned preventative maintenance)
Keep your machine and surrounding work area organised and maintained
Work closely with your team to achieve production, quality and efficiency targets
Continuously look for ways to improve machine performance and working standards
Be flexible to work occasional night shifts when required, with premium pay rates

The Package

£13.50 per hour
Regular overtime paid at 150%
Typical earnings of £33,000–£45,000
Night shift premium – typically 30–50% higher
47.5 hours per week
Monday to Friday – no weekend work
Annual holiday allowance
£50 safety shoe allowance every 6 months
PPE provided
Weekly competency bonuses
Weekly machine operator bonuses
Annual pay review
£1,000 new starter bonus
£1,000 employee referral bonus per successful hire
Birthday paid leave
Quarterly company social events
Christmas shutdown
Closed bank holidays

Why Join Us?

Full training provided – no previous machine operator experience required
Learn to operate industry-leading production machinery
Build valuable mechanical and technical skills
Clear progression path to Setter and Lead Operator
Earn more through overtime, skills and performance-based bonuses
Stable, permanent employment in a growing manufacturing business
Modern, clean and well-organised factory environment
Supportive team where training and development are taken seriously
Opportunity to build a long-term career rather than simply doing a job
Work Monday to Friday with no regular weekend work

What We’re Looking For

Mechanically minded and confident working with tools, machinery or equipment
A practical, hands-on approach to work
Willingness to learn and develop new technical skills
Experience in a mechanical, technical or production environment is highly desirable
Ability to follow job specifications, SOPs and instructions
Good communication skills and a strong team attitude
Reliable, motivated and safety-conscious
Comfortable working in a busy production environment
Basic maths and measurement skills
A positive attitude and willingness to take responsibility for your machine

You may have experience as a machine operator, production operator, CNC operator, engineering operative, mechanic, maintenance technician, printer, fabricator, agricultural worker or in another hands-on technical role.

If you have the right attitude and are mechanically minded, we are happy to train you in the role.

Preferred but not essential:

1 year of machine operator or production experience
Experience working with manufacturing machinery
Materials handling or warehouse operations experience
Mechanical, engineering, automotive, printing, CNC, fabrication or maintenance experience

If you're looking for a stable Monday-to-Friday role where you can learn a skilled trade, earn more through overtime and bonuses, and progress your career, we'd love to hear from you.
