⦁ Collaborate with experienced engineers on active projects
Candidate Profile:
⦁ Practical background in a mechanical or technical role (e.g. apprentice, fitter, technician)
⦁ Relevant qualification – HNC, HND, or completed engineering apprenticeship
⦁ Hands-on experience using tools, interpreting drawings, and assembling components
⦁ Eager to learn, proactive, and detail-focused
⦁ Comfortable working as part of a small technical team
⦁ Good communication skills and a positive, problem-solving attitude
