Contract: Permanent
Picture a warehouse. Now make it bigger and then double it. When your main product is aluminium used in windows, doors, conservatories and balustrades, you need serious space. In fact, our facility is large enough to fit four full-sized football pitches. This is where everything happens from raw materials coming in, to finishing, insulating, and preparing high-spec products ready for customers. As a Production Operative, you'll play a key role in bringing it all together.
What you'll be doing:
- You’ll be trained across all stages of the production line, including:
- Material Feeder loading aluminium onto the machinery
- Strip Feeder ensuring materials are aligned, checked, and up to quality standards
- Offloader/Packer handling finished products and preparing them for dispatch
The line runs continuously (200+ items per hour), so you’ll need to be comfortable working at a steady, consistent pace.
What we're looking for:
- Good level of physical fitness (you could be doing 15,000+ steps a day)
- A willingness to learn and develop new skills
- Strong team player with a positive, can-do attitude
- Reliable transport to site (public transport can be limited)
What you'll get:
- 25 days holiday + bank holidays (rising to 30 with service)
- Your birthday off paid
- Pension scheme (5% employee / 3% employer)
- Ongoing training and development opportunities
- Wellbeing support, including Employee Assistance Programme
- Free annual flu jab
- Discretionary profit-related bonus scheme
- After probation: Cycle2Work scheme
- Access to Medicash health plan
- Discounted gym memberships
At ALUK, we're proud of our diverse and inclusive workplace, where everyone is supported to be themselves and succeed.
