A leading designer and manufacturer of specialist safety equipment for hazardous areas serving a global client base across a range of industries is actively seeking an experienced CNC Brake Press Setter Operator to join their in-house Manufacturing Team.

Their site in Sunbury is easily reached by both road (2 minutes from the M3) and public transport (few minutes walk from Kempton Park train station) where they have in-house design, fabrication and testing facilities.

This is an exciting time to be joining them as they are continuing to expand their core product ranges, integrating technological developments, and the development of bespoke solutions to meet specific customer needs means that your work will be interesting and varied.

As a CNC Brake Press Operator you will be given full training to set and operate the Brake Press and Punch (including Radan programming) working with 316L stainless steel mostly 3mm but occasionally down to 1mm. After successful training you will become a Sheet Metal Worker.

You will need to be able to read engineering drawings and work to tight tolerances.

40 hour week
20 days holiday + bank holidays (1 day added per year of service up to 5 year where extra 2 days awarded for total of 27 days plus bank holiday)
Company sick pay available after probation - increases with length of service
Flexible start and finish times
7am-8am start

finish at lunchtime on Fridays if all hours made up
Overtime available at needs of business
Personalised induction and personal development plan, and clear career progression pathway within the company in the future.

Applications are invited from experienced Sheet Metal Workers, Setter / Operators, fabricators, welders, or workshop technicians or operatives with experience of using either a CNC brake press or punch machine.

We are keen to find workshop members with a real passion for attention to detail. You will need to be self-motivated to work both independently as well as within a team and be comfortable working on several projects simultaneously on occasion.
