Are you passionate about developing people and driving high standards in manufacturing? Do you bring a hands-on approach, strong technical expertise, and a mindset focused on safety, quality, and continuous improvement?

We’re looking for a proactive and engaging Trainer to join our team, supporting the development of our workforce in producing high-quality rubber moulded products to specification and target.

This is a fantastic opportunity for someone who thrives in a fast-paced environment and takes pride in coaching others to succeed.

About the Role

When not delivering training, you’ll remain hands-on and support production activities as a Manufacturing Operator.
