This role is suited to someone with strong fabrication, welding and engineering skills who can confidently take projects from technical drawings through to completion.

• Strong welding and fabrication skills
• Ability to fabricate accurately from technical drawings
• Good fitting, measuring and problem-solving skills
• Able to work unsupervised and take projects from start to finish
