Structural Steel Fabricator
<h2>Steel is your craft, not just your welding — we’re looking for a fabricator who knows their way around structural steel.</h2>
Structural Steel Fabricator
About the role
We are looking for an experienced Structural Steel Fabricator to join our team. This role is focused on the fabrication of structural steel, rather than welding alone.
You will work from structural and engineering drawings to measure, cut, drill, fit, assemble and prepare steel components for construction projects. The role will involve workshop fabrication of structural steel work.
Welding experience is useful, but the key requirement is strong structural steel fabrication and construction experience.
Key responsibilities
- Fabricate structural steel components including beams, columns, braces, frames, trusses, plates and other steelwork.
- Read and interpret structural and engineering drawings, specifications and fabrication details.
- Measure, mark out, cut, drill, prepare and assemble structural steel components.
- Fit and prepare steel components for assembly and installation.
- Check levels, measurements, plumb, alignment and positioning against drawings and specifications.
- Carry out modifications, repairs and adjustments to structural steelwork as required.
- Use hand tools, power tools, fabrication machinery and lifting equipment safely.
- Carry out welding where required as part of the fabrication and installation process.
- Maintain a high standard of workmanship and follow all health and safety requirements.
- Work effectively both independently and as part of a fabrication/construction team.
What we are looking for
- Minimum 3 years' experience in structural steel fabrication.
- Strong practical understanding of structural steel fabrication and assembly.
- Experience working from structural and engineering drawings.
- Ability to accurately measure, mark out, cut, drill, fit and assemble structural steel.
- Rigging and lifting experience is desirable.
- Welding experience is beneficial, but this is not primarily a welding role.
- Ability to work confidently in both a workshop.
- Good attention to detail and commitment to quality workmanship.
- Strong health and safety awareness.
- Ability to work as part of a team and follow project specifications and drawings.
The ideal candidate
The ideal candidate is someone who considers themselves a structural steel fabricator first, with strong hands-on experience in measuring, cutting, drilling, fitting and assembling structural steel.
If you have strong structural steel fabrication experience and are looking for a role where your fabrication skills are the priority, we would like to hear from you.
