What We’re Looking For:
- A genuine interest in fabrication, engineering, or manufacturing
- Good attention to detail and a hands-on, practical mindset
- Willingness to learn from experienced team members
- Ability to follow instructions and work as part of a team
- Positive attitude, good timekeeping, and a strong work ethic
- Previous experience using tools or working in a workshop environment (advantageous but not essential)
What You’ll Get in Return:
- 4-day working week (Monday–Thursday, 6:00 AM–3:30 PM) – long weekends, every weekend
- Full training and support from an experienced team
- Real opportunities for progression and development
- Clean, modern workshop with quality equipment
