​

We’re working with a well-established plastics manufacturer who needs someone properly experienced in mould tool maintenance. This isn’t a “watch and learn” role. This is sleeves rolled up, strip it down, fix it, improve it, put it back into production and make it run better than before.

​

If you enjoy solving problems on the shop floor and taking pride in keeping production moving, this will suit you.

​

Planned preventative maintenance on injection mould tools

​

Stripping, cleaning, inspecting, repairing and rebuilding tools

Supporting tool changeovers to keep downtime low

​

Strong mechanical ability — you understand how mould tools actually work

​

Able to read and interpret engineering drawings without panic

​

Nice to Have (But Not Essential)

Toolmaking or mechanical engineering qualification

​

What You’ll Get

What You Might Not Like

It’s not an office job — this is proper engineering.

If you’re the kind of person who takes pride in tools running right and hates seeing repeat breakdowns… we should talk.
