Mechanical Fitter - Runcorn
Up to ÂŁ40K basic + overtime, bonus, pension & more!
Mon-Fri, 37 hours (On-call 1 week in 4 – don’t worry, we won’t call just to chat.)
About the Job
Love taking things apart and actually putting them back together (correctly)? Got a soft spot for industrial transmissions? Then step right up! We need a Mechanical Fitter to keep things spinning, whirring, and NOT exploding.
Your Mission (Should You Choose to Accept It)
Strip, assess & rebuild transmissions, gearboxes, and other rotating kit (no duct tape allowed).
Use micrometers, internal mics & DTI gauges like a pro.
Visit customer sites to fix things (and maybe impress them with your toolkit).
Follow safety rules—because fire drills are only fun in school.
Write root cause reports (translation: explain why it broke in a way non-engineers understand).
What We’re Looking For
- Experience fixing all kinds of gears (if you can name them, we’re impressed).
- Ability to measure things properly (no “looks about right” here).
- Knows bearing & bore fits, laser alignment and how to read engineering drawings.
- NVQ Level 3 or equivalent (fancy paper that says you know your stuff).
- A driving licence (sadly, teleportation isn’t an option yet).
If you like big engineering and you cannot lie, hit APPLY NOW before someone else does!
