Meridian Business Support are seeking a Welder experienced in Mig/ Tig and MMA for a leading global engineering company.
As a Welder working within our Engineered Systems Manufacturing Unit (ESMU), your day will be hands-on and varied. You’ll be responsible for fabrication and welding of bespoke pipework products, often involving multiple positional welds. Using your MIG, TIG, and MMA welding experience, you’ll work on both carbon and stainless-steel pipework and pressure vessels, following detailed engineering drawings and weld procedures to deliver high-quality, customer-specific solutions.
Your tasks may include marking out, plasma cutting, grinding, and drilling, alongside inspecting and maintaining weld quality throughout. You'll work closely with your Team Leader, although the role is production-focused, you'll have the autonomy to manage your workload efficiently. You’ll also play an important part in upholding EHS standards and contributing to continuous improvement initiatives on the shop floor.
Ideally you will have proven experience in MIG, TIG, and MMA welding, particularly on pipework and pressure vessels made from carbon and stainless steel. While you don’t need to be coded, you must be confident working from engineering drawings, familiar with fabrication techniques, and capable of maintaining high quality standards in a production environment. A flexible, proactive approach, strong attention to detail, and a commitment to health and safety are essential.
