Workshop Welder / Machinist (Stainless Steel Focus)
Looking for a role where your welding skills are genuinely valued, but you can also keep your hands in machining?
We’re working with a well-established manufacturing business looking to add a Welder / Machinist to their close-knit workshop team. This is a hands-on, varied role with a strong emphasis on quality stainless steel welding, alongside practical machining work using lathes and mills.
The Role
This is not a one-dimensional job — you’ll be a key part of the workshop, balancing precision welding with machining responsibilities.
* MIG welding on stainless and mild steel fabricated components
* Producing clean, high-quality welds where finish matters
* Operating manual machinery including lathes, mills and band saws
* Supporting light CNC work where required
* Reading and working from engineering drawings and technical specs
* Inspecting your own work to maintain high standards
* Working closely with the wider team to meet production targets
(Typically a welding-led role, but with regular hands-on machining throughout the week)
What We’re Looking For
We’re looking for someone who is confident in welding, but also comfortable getting involved with machining — or keen to develop further in that area.
* Strong MIG welding experience (essential)
*Experience working with stainless steel – key requirement
* Ability to produce neat, consistent welds
* Experience using manual lathes and/or milling machines
* Ability to read and interpret engineering drawings
* Background in a workshop or manufacturing environment
* A hands-on, team-focused attitude with pride in your work
(Machining can be developed further if your welding is your stronger skillset)
Why Apply?
* £30–32k basic + regular overtime available
* Monday to Friday – no weekends
* 25 days holiday + bank holidays
*Supportive, down-to-earth team environment
* Opportunity to develop both welding and machining skills
* Stable business that invests in its people
This role suits someone who enjoys variety, takes pride in high-quality stainless steel welding, but also wants to stay involved in practical machining work rather than being stuck on one process all day.
