• Good attitude and willingness to learn
• Someone who comes across well and fits into a close-knit team
• Full UK driving licence

Engineers at an earlier stage in their career will also be considered, provided they have the right attitude, solid foundations, and are keen to develop.

What’s On Offer

• £35,000 - £45,000 basic salary depending on experience
• Potential flexibility for the right candidate
• Door-to-door pay
• Strong overtime opportunities
• Specialist product training
• Genuine progression within a growing business
