Build something you can be proud of—together.

We’re working with a world-leading automotive manufacturer with over 100 years of innovation. Their modern, well-organised facility has a strong order book and is continuing to grow and they’re now welcoming Production Operatives to join the team on a long-term basis, with immediate starts available.

This is a supportive, inclusive workplace where people are trained properly, treated with respect, and given opportunities to develop—no matter their background.

The Role

As a Production Operative, you’ll be part of a close-knit production team, where quality, safety, and teamwork matter.

You’ll be trained to:

* Use specialist equipment such as air tools, spray guns, and hog rings

* Assemble and produce high-quality automotive components

* Carry out visual quality checks on your own work

* Follow clear health & safety processes designed to keep everyone safe

* Support your teammates to keep production running smoothly

No two days are exactly the same, and you’ll learn valuable skills used across modern manufacturing.

Shift Pattern

This role operates on a two-shift rotation:

Days:

* Monday – Thursday 6:45am – 3pm

* Friday – 6:45am – 2:30pm

Lates:

* Monday – Thursday 4:20pm – 00:35

* Friday – 2:55pm – 10:40pm

You’ll need to be flexible to work all shifts and overtime when required.

Shift premiums reflect this flexibility.

What We’re Looking For

We’re interested in people, not just CVs.

* Manufacturing experience is helpful but not essential—full training is provided

* A positive attitude, reliability, and willingness to learn

* Ability to work as part of a team in a structured environment

If you’ve worked in care, retail, hospitality, warehousing, or production before, your skills are highly transferable.

What You’ll Get in Return

* Competitive hourly pay with generous shift premiums

* Full training and ongoing development

* Long-term, stable work with permanent opportunities

* Summer and winter factory shutdowns

* Subsidised onsite canteen

* Free tea and coffee

* Free onsite parking (cars, motorbikes, and bicycles)

* Leisure facilities (including a pool table)

* Lockers and personal storage

* Free feminine hygiene products

* Regular wellbeing events and initiatives
