Our client is a well-established, specialist tubular engineering and fabrication company based in Daventry. Operating with a tight-knit, skilled team of around 30 people, they pride themselves on high-quality precision engineering and a supportive working environment. Due to a strong pipeline of work, they are looking for an experienced Welder Fabricator to join their workshop immediately.
This is a hands-on workshop role focusing on high-quality tubular fabrication. You will be working on a variety of projects, including bespoke handrails and manifolds, executing tube-on-tube welds and fitting-to-tube fabrications.
