About The Role

Are you an enthusiastic and dedicated individual looking for the next step in your career? Now’s your chance to join our team at Sunbelt Rentals UK as Fabrication Operative. It’s our vision to own the future of rentals and our mission to deliver a world-class experience.

As Fabrication Operative you’ll work as part of a team to organise, maintain and store a variety of equipment at our depot. You’ll spend your days working in the yard, which means you will be outside in all weathers. Training is provided on correct techniques but you will need to use manual handling skills to move barriers and temporary access equipment in a safe manor.

This is an exciting opportunity for those who enjoy working outside. No two days are the same and flexibility between peak periods and quieter times is essential. The hours vary and can be unsociable including weekends, evenings and nights.

What can we offer you in return? You’ll be joining a highly successful FTSE100 company, the UK’s largest equipment rental provider.  We provide an Industry leading flexible rewards package including generous holiday allowance (with the opportunity to buy and sell annual leave), life assurance, retail discount scheme, employee recognition awards and a great Company pension scheme.

About You

If you join the team we’ll provide you with everything you need and ensure you are equipped for success. We’ll talk to you about your training and personal development needs and what you’d like to do to further your career and support your future aspirations.  

To succeed as a Fabrication Operative you will bring the following skill-set and behaviours:

  • Enjoy working closely with others
  • Have excellent communication skills
  • Understand the importance of working in a safe manor complying to H&S legislation
  • Show good attention to detail
  • Have an understanding of wash plant operations and experience in a similar depot role

It would be advantageous to have:

  • Valid driving licence
  • First Aid Training
  • CSCS/IOSH/H&S Awareness
  • FLT licence (ideally B2)
  • Overhead crane licence
  • NVQ Level 2 in Plant Operations/Warehousing
  • Supervisory Management Training
