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:

• Sanding down components to the required finish
  
  
• Drilling holes accurately following specifications
  
  
• Preparing and finishing components ready for production
  
  
• Following a clear stage-by-stage preparation process
  
  
• Using basic hand and power tools
  
  
• 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.

 

What are we looking for?

Previous experience within manufacturing, production, engineering, assembly or another hands-on environment would be an advantage.

We're particularly interested in people who:

• 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
  
  
  

Full training on the preparation processes will be provided.
