Are you a skilled Gearbox Fitter who takes pride in precision engineering and quality workmanship?
Do you enjoy diagnosing faults, rebuilding complex machinery, and seeing a job done properly?
We’re looking for a hands-on, detail-driven Gearbox Fitter to join our busy and growing gearbox repair team. You’ll play a key role in dismantling, inspecting, rebuilding, and reporting on a wide range of industrial gearboxes — contributing directly to reliability, safety, and performance for our customers.
What You’ll Be Doing
- Dismantling and assembling a wide range of industrial gearboxes to a high standard
- Carrying out detailed inspections and producing clear, accurate reports on condition and faults
- Interpreting engineering drawings, technical data, and specifications
- Ensuring all work meets quality, health & safety, and environmental standards
- Working independently while taking full ownership of accuracy and workmanship
- Supporting continuous improvement by identifying smarter, more efficient ways of working
- Responding to urgent or emergency repair requirements when needed
This is a varied role within a busy workshop environment, offering real scope for development for the right person.
What We’re Looking For
- Time-served apprenticeship in a relevant engineering discipline or equivalent hands-on experience
- Solid working knowledge of gearboxes and mechanical assemblies
- Confident using measuring and inspection equipment to ensure accuracy and quality
- Ability to read and interpret engineering drawings and technical data
- Strong problem-solving skills and a proactive, practical mindset
- Comfortable working both independently and as part of a team
Health & Safety, environmental, or quality training is an advantage — but not essential.
Education / Experience
- GCSEs (or equivalent)
- Proven experience in a mechanical or gearbox-related role
Why Join Us?
- Stable, long-term role within a specialist engineering team
- Opportunity to work on varied and technically interesting equipment
- Supportive workshop environment that values quality and skill
- Career development potential for motivated engineers
