Fabricator, Manufacturing ​/ Production

Fabricator / Welder Precision Fabrication | Engineered Systems Manufacturing Role Overview

An established engineering manufacturer operating within high‑specification industrial sectors is seeking an experienced Fabricator / Welder to support the production of structural frameworks, pressure‑related components and associated engineered assemblies.

The role sits within a dedicated fabrication cell and plays a critical part in delivering mechanically robust, dimensionally accurate components that support wider system integration and assembly operations.

Reporting to:
Fabrication Leadership

• Fabrication and welding of structural frames, cylindrical vessels and associated mechanical components
• Predominantly MIG welding, with TIG welding applied where required
• Working from detailed technical and engineering drawings to produce components to specification
• Maintaining dimensional tolerances, alignment accuracy and material integrity
• Minimal finishing and surface preparation to complete components to required standard
• Operation of workshop equipment including saws, pedestal drills and general fabrication machinery
• Compliance with production schedules, quality standards and workshop safety protocols
• Supporting wider manufacturing operations during peak demand periods

• Demonstrable experience within a fabrication and welding environment
• Strong MIG welding capability (essential)
• TIG welding experience (advantageous)
• Ability to interpret detailed fabrication and engineering drawings
• Sound understanding of dimensional tolerances, bend allowances and material behaviour under heat
• Experience working to defined quality standards in structured manufacturing environments
• Competent use of hand tools and workshop power tools

• NVQ Level 2 or 3 in Fabrication & Welding (or equivalent vocational qualification) preferred
• Valid driving licence
• FLT certification advantageous
