Job Overview
Welder / Fabricator
An excellent opportunity to join our growing welding team
Following continued growth and the award of several significant contracts, we are looking for skilled and motivated Welder/Fabricators to join our team.
We manufacture industrial fans for a diverse range of customers and sectors. Our varied workload ranges from standard HVAC applications to technically demanding nuclear projects, giving employees the opportunity to work on a wide range of products and specifications.
