Job description
FABRICATORS - PETERBOROUGH - £DOE - TEMP TO PERM
The Role
This one’s for proper fabricators.
If you can read a drawing without squinting, measure twice (because you know better), and take pride in producing tidy, solid steelwork — keep reading.
We’re looking for an experienced Fabricator to join a busy, well-run workshop turning out quality structural and bespoke steel. This isn’t agency fluff or a “press button A” role — you’ll be fabricating real work, to real standards, with a team that knows what they’re doing.
If you like seeing a job come together properly and going home knowing you’ve done it right, you’ll fit in just fine.
What You’ll Be Doing
Fabricating structural and bespoke steelwork from engineering drawings
Measuring, cutting, prepping, and assembling steel components
Working with mild steel (and occasionally heavier sections)
Tack welding and preparing work for final weld
Using workshop tools and machinery safely and correctly
Maintaining quality, accuracy, and attention to detail on every job
Working as part of a close-knit workshop team to hit deadlines
What You’ll Need
Proven experience as a Fabricator (workshop-based)
Ability to read and interpret engineering drawings confidently
Solid measuring and marking-out skills
Experience working with structural or bespoke steel
A good eye for detail and pride in your work
A sensible, safety-aware approach on the shopfloor
Reliability — turning up and cracking on matters here
What You Might Not Like
Let’s be honest — this role isn’t for everyone.
It’s hands-on, physical work
Quality matters — rushing it isn’t an option
You’ll be expected to work to drawings, not guess
If you don’t like teamwork or taking responsibility for your output, this won’t suit you
What To Do Next
If you’re a fabricator who wants steady work, decent kit, and a team that values doing the job properly, hit apply.
No nonsense. No drama. Just good fabrication work done well.
