• Mechanical Fitter background with strong maintenance experience
• Knowledge of line breaking / cutting lines and safe isolation procedures
• Good attitude and reliability — this site has ongoing work for the right person
• Own PPE and relevant certification (CSCS/CCNSG or site-specific passport preferred)
