We welcome your application if you are an experienced production operative who is used to working within a busy semi-skilled manufacturing environment. You will ideally be familiar with using a range of associated hand-tools and machinery (in particular, as a timber operative, you will have woodworking skills and experience of relevant tools), whilst upholding health, safety & quality standards. We empower our colleagues to have real ‘ownership’ of their own projects, so you will relish this and be happy working to deadlines.
An ability to read/interpret technical drawings would be useful as would previous experience of KPI/productivity reporting or working with visual management boards.
You will ideally reside within a reasonable daily journey time to our Grantham site and have a positive and flexible approach to work.
