We are pleased to be partnering with a market leader in the heat treatment industry, who are currently seeking a skilled furnace operator to join their team. Established in 1980, our client has built a strong reputation for providing high-quality heat treatment services across a diverse range of industry sectors. These include precision engineering, pharmaceuticals, and the highly demanding fields of Formula 1 and motorsport. Their long-standing expertise and commitment to excellence have made them a trusted name in the industry, and this role presents an exciting opportunity to contribute to their continued success.
The role
The role encompasses a range of responsibilities, including setting up loads by carefully arranging components for processing, operating and monitoring furnaces, configuring and adjusting equipment, and breaking down loads once processing is complete. The ideal candidate will become an integral part of a dedicated team of operators, working on a rotating schedule across two alternating day shifts. In addition to weekday shifts, the role also requires occasional weekend work, typically for a few hours every other week. This position offers the opportunity to work in a collaborative environment where attention to detail and teamwork are highly valued.
