Piping Draughtsman

Wakefield (with UK site travel) | Permanent | £40,000 - £45,000

This is a hands-on draughting role sitting at the centre of a busy piping design office. You will take designs from concept through to fully packaged technical drawings - work that directly enables fabrication and installation teams to get on with the job.

What You'll Be Doing

* Developing and modifying 3D models using AutoCAD and CADWorx to the direction of the Piping Design Manager

* Producing GAs, layout drawings, detail drawings, and P&IDs from the 3D model

* Creating fabrication isometrics directly from the CADWorx model

* Compiling accurate bills of materials to support procurement and fabrication

* Presenting models during design reviews to internal and client teams

* Carrying out site surveys across UK locations as projects require - including working with point cloud data where 3D Lidar scanning has been used

The Environment

This is a multi-discipline design office environment where piping sits alongside other engineering functions. You will work closely with the Piping Design Manager and across disciplines to deliver drawing packages that are both technically compliant and buildable. The role involves regular UK travel for site surveys, so flexibility is a genuine requirement rather than a footnote.

What You'll Need

Essential

* 3 or more years of mechanical and piping draughting experience in a design office setting

* Solid working knowledge of P&ID drawing conventions and symbology

* Proven ability to produce fabrication isometrics

* Competent use of 3D AutoCAD

* Full UK driving licence

Desirable

* Background in process industry piping - chemical sector experience particularly useful

* CADWorx experience (training will be provided for the right candidate)

* Exposure to steelwork structures and skid modelling

* Experience designing or specifying pipe supports

* Working knowledge of ASME B31.3

* Site survey experience, including 3D Lidar scanning and point cloud modelling

* Safety passport such as EMSS

* Comfortable with Microsoft 365

What's On Offer

* Salary of £40,000 to £45,000 depending on experience

* Permanent position with a stable, project-led business

* Travel expenses covered for UK site visits

* CADWorx training provided where needed

About the Business

This is an established engineering business operating in the process and chemical sectors, delivering piping design and fabrication packages across a range of industrial projects. The design office handles work from initial concept through to construction-ready drawing packages, with a reputation built on technical accuracy and project delivery.
