Full job description

Caledora — Milton Keynes (MK13) £29,000 starting, with monthly reviews during probation Full-time, Monday to Friday, 7:00 AM – 4:30 PM

About us

Caledora is a small, family-run workshop producing bespoke shower enclosures and high-end glass products. We're growing, but we've kept the small-team feel — everyone matters, every job matters, and we take real pride in what leaves the workshop.

Our main product is shower glass, but the day-to-day work in the workshop is mostly metalwork — aluminium frame preparation, assembly and finishing — combined with glass.

What you'll be doing

You'll be involved in the full production of framed shower doors, screens and mirror frames, working with both aluminium and glass. It's a varied, multi-task role — you'll move between jobs depending on what's in production rather than doing one thing all day.

The work includes:

Cutting, drilling and assembling aluminium extrusions
Fitting glass into frames using silicone sealants and structural adhesives
Polishing of aluminium and other metals, both manually and using machine polishers, including preparation for electroless nickel (EN) plating
Belt sanding extrusions on our Garboli Duo (load-and-replace once you're shown how)
Operating small CNC machines for cutting notches in aluminium extrusions
Assisting with EN plating and (soon) anodising processes
Quality checking, finishing and packing

Who we're looking for

We want someone reliable, careful, and proud of doing things properly. We're more interested in the right person to grow with us long-term than in someone with a specific list of skills already. Full training will be provided on our processes and machines.

Specifically:

Reliability is non-negotiable. This is a 7:00am start, five days a week. If you're the sort who's late or misses days without proper notice, this isn't the job for you — we won't keep you past probation.
Strong attention to detail. We don't rush. Every piece is bespoke, and if quality isn't right, we won't ship it — we redo it. There's no place for "good enough" here.
Hands-on workshop, factory, or trade background helpful — but more important is the willingness to learn properly and stay.
Comfortable with basic hand and power tools (drills, sanders, etc.)
Good communication and teamwork — it's a small workshop, and we rely on each other

How pay and progression work

The salary starts at £29,000. During your probation I'll review your progress every month. As your skills improve and you get to know our processes properly, your pay will rise accordingly.

I'd rather invest in someone who's clearly developing than keep someone who isn't — so if it's not working out, on either side, we'll be honest about it early rather than waste each other's time.

What we offer

Full training on our equipment and processes
A friendly, supportive small-team environment
A genuine chance to build real, multi-skilled trade experience in metal and glass
28 days annual leave
Auto-enrolment pension scheme

Hours and location

Monday to Friday, 7:00 AM – 4:30 PM Workshop based in Milton Keynes, MK13

If you take pride in your work, turn up consistently, and want to learn proper craft skills working with metal and glass while building a long-term role, we'd like to hear from you.

Pay: From £29,000.00 per year

Benefits:

On-site parking

Do you have the right to work in the UK without requiring sponsorship?
What's your notice period with your current employer?
What kind of hands-on work have you done before? (workshop, factory, building, anything similar)
Are you able to commute to Milton Keynes, MK13, for a 7:00am start, Monday to Friday?
