Craft Assistant

Are you looking for a hands-on role where your work makes a real difference? We have and exciting opportunity for a Craft Assistant within our FCA Engineering Maintenance team. This is a varied role offering the opportunity to work alongside skilled tradespeople, contribute to important site programmes, and develop valuable technical and practical experience.

You will provide practical support across a range of maintenance, installation and workshop activities. You'll help keep equipment and work areas safe, operational and compliant, while contributing to the smooth delivery of the site's maintenance programme.

Assist with preventive and corrective maintenance activities, minor repairs, equipment checks, new installations and daily operational tasks across the site.
Produce accurate job reports, identify and report routine maintenance and equipment performance issues, and support the safe handover and control of plant and equipment.
