• Working at height (ladders, scissor lifts, cherry pickers, scaffolding)
• Working in hot or cold environments
• Manual handling
• Use of welding equipment
• Use of lathes, milling machines, band saws, pillar drills, or other large workshop machinery (operators must prove competence prior to use)
• Work with cryogenic fluids including liquid nitrogen
• Working with or near equipment that produces high magnetic fields
• Handling materials managed under hazardous substances regulations (COSHH)

Salary dependent on skills and experience, to be discussed at interview. Benefits include 28 days holiday (including festive break) plus bank holidays, discretionary performance bonuses, share options scheme, pension scheme, and financial benefits such as group life insurance, critical illness cover, health cash plan, and discounts.
