Role: Assembler

Location: Blackpool, FY4 4NW

Hours: 37 hours per week | between 07:00 and 16:30 Monday to Thursday

Hourly rate: between £18.43 and £19.10 DOE

Build something you can see take shape.

We’re looking for an Assembler to join our Production team at Dennis Eagle in Blackpool.

If you have hands-on experience in assembly, fitting, production or manufacturing and enjoy practical work where quality matters, this could be a great next step.

You’ll help build vehicle cabs to individual specifications, fitting everything from mechanical and electrical components to interiors, seating, lighting, glazing and dashboards. You’ll work as part of a supportive production team, following clear build instructions to make sure every cab is completed safely and to the right standard.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Building vehicle cabs to individual specifications and work instructions.
• Assembling and fitting mechanical, electrical and interior components.
• Using hand tools, power tools and production equipment safely.
• Fitting components such as wiring, lighting, dashboards, seating, glazing and interior trim.
• Checking your work throughout the build to make sure it meets our quality standards.
• Spotting and reporting any missing parts, defects or build issues.
• Keeping accurate production and quality records.
• Working with colleagues to keep production moving smoothly.
• Maintaining a clean, organised and safe working environment.

What We’re Looking For

You don’t need a particular formal qualification if you can demonstrate the practical skills needed for the role.

We’d Like You To Have

• Experience in assembly, fitting, production or manufacturing.
• Experience using hand tools and/or power tools safely.
• Some experience fitting mechanical, electrical, interior or similar components.
• An understanding of safe working practices within a manufacturing or assembly environment.
• The ability to follow written, visual and verbal instructions accurately.
• A careful approach to quality and attention to detail.
• The ability to work effectively with others and adapt across different assembly tasks.

Experience working with build instructions or digital production systems, or knowledge of 5S and takt-based production, would be useful but isn’t essential.

This is a practical role where you can see the results of your work. You’ll be contributing directly to the build of our vehicle cabs while developing your experience across a variety of assembly tasks.

We welcome applicants from all backgrounds. Even if you don't meet every requirement, we encourage you to apply. We value potential and are committed to supporting your development.

We recognise the importance of flexibility and offer a range of flexible and hybrid working arrangements where the nature of the role and business needs allow. If you'd like to understand what options may be available for this position, please contact our Recruitment team.
