Supporting efficiency, quality and cost-reduction initiatives
Assisting in trials for new processes and improvements
Promoting and maintaining strong health & safety standards
Supporting apprentices and fitters with technical guidance

About You

You are technically capable, detail-oriented and motivated to deliver excellence. You enjoy working with minimal supervision, taking ownership of tasks while supporting those around you. You communicate effectively at all levels and thrive in a collaborative engineering environment.
