Nights

The work
Setting and running CNC turret punches, Trumpf on this site. Setting and changing tooling, grinding and keeping tools in condition, loading programmes, working off engineering drawings and checking your own components as they come off the machine.

What they're after
Punch press setting on Trumpf or Amada, or something close enough that you'll pick these up quickly. Confident reading drawings and gauging your own work. Fluent English for drawings, paperwork and safety. On nights especially you need to be able to run your machine without anyone stood next to you, there's no day shift on site to lean on.

If you've operated turrets for years but never properly set them, still get in touch, there are operative seats on the same site and we'd rather have the conversation than not.
