The company, who turn over £350million per annum have over 20 manufacturing sites dotted through the UK. The site based in Thatcham, has been a well-established employer in the area for over 40 years and has seen continuous periods of significant growth in recent times.

The ongoing investment within the site has cemented their long-term commitment to the local area of being an employer of choice for the foreseeable future.

Plant machinery include cutters, overhead cranes, belt conveyors, roller conveyors, casting cars, robotics, shrink wrapping machinery and autoclaves.

About you

  • Recognised engineering qualification (Level 3, or above)
  • Sound understanding of mechanical health and safety practices.
  • Experience fault finding on automated machinery.  

The benefits

This is a fantastic opportunity for any engineer that is looking to work within a stable environment, for a company that will keep on growing alongside a busy construction market. This is also a fantastic opportunity for an engineer to acquire a new range of skills with a put together training package that will help them flourish on site.
