HGV Trailer Service Engineer

My client is a globally recognized manufacturer of commercial vehicles with over 600 employees based out of their sites across the world. Following the acquisition and reinvestment into their UK based operation, they are looking to expand quickly to deliver on existing sales commitments, but also to aid the company to aggressively attract new business.

Jaxdene Solutions are proud to have been exclusively engaged in supporting them with their planned growth.

Based in their purpose-built North Cambridgeshire home, they are in the early stages of rebuilding their Service and Repair function, as well as establishing the New Product Assembly facility ready for use, and as a consequence they need a new Welder Fabricator to join their experienced team.

Ideally you will have at least 3-5 years’ experience in a similar role and be qualified to at least NVQ or Apprenticeship level in Welding or Fabrication. You will have a broad background in a variety of fabrication, welding and fitting techniques, and be able to work unsupervised on a wide range of problems. Using your knowledge, you will service and repair trailers, tanks and associated systems, but also be able to fabricate parts for upgrades and retrofits where required.

Knowledge of Commercial Vehicles is not essential, but strong TIG Aluminium skills are, and a weld test will be undertaken as part of the interview. What is key is your understanding that my client is looking not just for experience, but also the drive to learn new skills, contribute to a growing businesses success, and to embrace the challenges of a niche engineering market.

In return, my client offers a very good hourly rate, with an opportunity for personal progression including a route in a supervisory role, and the chance to have your skills further enhanced through the Coded Welding route.
