Job Description

Toolmaker
Toolmaker Salary:
£17 – £20 per hour
Location:
Bournemouth

 

A long-standing engineering company in Bournemouth is on the lookout for a Toolmaker to join their team. They’ve built a solid reputation for producing high-quality equipment that supports manufacturing across the globe. It’s a company that quietly gets on with things – no fuss, just a real focus on doing things properly. The workshop is well-equipped, the team is experienced, and they’re always open to ideas that help improve how they work.

 

Toolmaker Responsibilities:

  • Using manual machines like lathes and mills to make or refurbish jigs and fixtures.
  • Getting hands-on with problem-solving – looking at what’s needed and figuring out how to make it happen.
  • Working with the team to improve how things are made and make sure we get it right first time.
  • Using your practical skills – whether that’s fabrication, hand assembly, or tweaking something that just isn’t quite working.

 

Toolmaker Requirements:

  • Someone time-served or traditionally trained on manual machines.
  • Confident coming up with tooling ideas and seeing them through from concept to build.
  • Handy on the shop floor, with a practical mindset and a real eye for detail.
  • A team player who’s not afraid to get stuck in and enjoys finding better ways to do things.

 

Toolmaker Benefits:

  • 25 days holiday plus Bank Holidays
  • Free on-site parking
  • Generous pension scheme
  • Life assurance
