Pertemps are currently recruiting Preparation Operatives to join a well-established specialist manufacturing business based in Pontypool.
The company manufactures specialist components and products for the automotive sector, and we're looking for people who enjoy practical, hands-on work to join their busy preparation department.
What will you be doing?
As a Preparation Operative, you'll be responsible for preparing components through a stage-by-stage process before they move onto the next stage of production.
Your day-to-day duties will include:

* Checking your work to ensure it meets quality standards
* Identifying any defects or issues with components
* Following work instructions and production specifications
* Keeping your work area clean, tidy and safe
* Working as part of the wider manufacturing team
This is a hands-on role, so you'll need to be comfortable carrying out practical tasks and working accurately to a set process.
Hours & Shift Pattern
You'll work alternating shifts each week:
* Week 1 – 6:00am to 2:00pm
* Week 2 – 2:00pm to 10:00pm
The shifts then continue to alternate weekly. xjnqpsq

* Enjoy practical, hands-on work
* Are confident using basic tools
* Have good attention to detail
* Can follow a process from start to finish
* Are reliable and punctual
* Are comfortable working rotating shifts
* Take pride in producing work to a high standard
