Full job description

Hartwell Manufacturing is a family-run engineering business with nearly 50 years of experience delivering high-quality acoustic enclosures and heavy steel fabrication projects. From our Sheffield facility, we support clients in the power, data centre and industrial sectors with engineered solutions built on precision, collaboration and reliability. The culture is hands-on, team-focused and proud of the work we produce.

We are looking for an experienced Night Shift Supervisor to oversee our welding and fabrication team at our Sheffield site.

Recognise when an issue should be referred to senior management or HR.

Encourage teamwork, accountability and respect across the shift.

Maintain consistent standards across the team.

Quality and Housekeeping

Ensure employees complete work to the required quality standards.

Challenge poor workmanship and prevent avoidable rework.

Report recurring quality issues or non-conformances.

Ensure work areas remain clean, organised and safe.

Make sure tools, materials and equipment are stored correctly.

Ensure completed work is clearly identified and moved to the correct area.

Health and Safety

Ensure employees follow site safety rules, risk assessments and safe systems of work.

Make sure required PPE is worn correctly.

Challenge unsafe behaviour immediately.

Report accidents, near misses, hazards and equipment concerns.

Ensure walkways, work areas and emergency routes remain clear.

Support a safe and controlled night-shift working environment.

Act as a responsible point of contact during the night shift.
