Stafflex are recruiting on behalf of our client for an Installation & Production Operative to join a specialist business. This is a fantastic opportunity for someone who enjoys practical, hands-on work and thrives in a role where no two weeks look the same. The successful candidate will split their time between supporting production at the company's West Yorkshire facility and travelling to installation sites across the UK, with occasional overseas travel.

This role would suit someone who enjoys working with their hands, being part of a close-knit team, and seeing projects through from manufacture to final installation.

Key Duties:
  • Assisting with installation projects across the UK and occasionally overseas
  • Supporting construction, assembly and mechanical fitting activities on site
  • Preparing materials, tools and equipment for upcoming projects
  • Loading and unloading vehicles and containers
  • Assisting with production and manufacturing tasks at the Holmfirth facility
  • Maintaining tools, equipment and work areas
  • Supporting the wider team with general operational tasks as required
Requirements:

We are looking for someone with a strong work ethic and practical mindset. Attitude and reliability are just as important as previous experience. You will ideally be:

  • Practical and hands-on
  • Physically fit and comfortable with manual work
  • Happy working outdoors in varying weather conditions
  • Flexible with travel and working away from home
  • Reliable, punctual and self-motivated
  • Comfortable working within a small team
  • Keen to learn and develop new skills

Experience in any of the following would be advantageous:

  • Construction or site work
  • Groundworks or landscaping
  • Manufacturing or production
  • Mechanical assembly
  • Plant, agricultural or machinery operation

When installation projects are not underway, you will be based in Holmfirth supporting manufacturing and production operations. Site-based work makes up less than 50% of the year; however, when working away, assignments can vary in length and may occasionally involve stays that could be multiple weeks at a time.

Qualifications such as CSCS, CPCS, NPORS, IPAF, PASMA or First Aid would be beneficial but are not essential.

Essential Requirements:
  • Full UK driving licence
  • Ability to travel across the UK and overseas, sometimes at short notice
  • Ability to satisfy site access/security clearance requirements where necessary

This role offers long-term development opportunities, with scope to progress into more senior or supervisory responsibilities over time. Please apply now if you have the relevant skills and experience.
