Widnes, North West

An excellent opportunity for a mechanical engineer looking for a hands-on supervisory role offering Monday to Friday working hours and great day-to-day variation.

This is a great chance to work for a specialist engineering company where you will lead and coordinate daily activities of a small team of workshop engineers.

You will be tasked with allocating engineering workload and managing operational performance within the workshop, whilst also carrying out mechanical fitting work across an array of equipment.

Whilst 90% of the role is within the workshop, there may also be very infrequent site work which will require some travel and occasional out of hours working / nights away, so it is important you are ok with this.

The role poses a unique opportunity to quickly become a key contributor to an established business and be able to increase your earnings through overtime and company bonuses.

The Role:

• Mechanical Fitter / Hands-on Supervisor - Monday to Thursday 8am-4:45pm and Friday 8am-1:30pm.
• Lead and coordinate daily activities of a small team of workshop engineers.
• Hands-on role carrying out mechanical work across an array of equipment.

The Candidate:

• Mechanical Engineering/Fitting background.
• Looking for a hands-on supervisory role within a workshop-based environment.
• Hold a level 3 engineering qualification.

Candidates from a heavy engineering/industrial/manufacturing background are encouraged to apply.

Please note that we will only accept applications from candidates that have a valid work permit to work in the UK.

By applying to this job, you are confirming that you do not hold a criminal record and that you know of no legal reason why you would be ineligible for employment.
