Take structural steel, pipework and fabricated product concepts through to buildable design outputs. Work closely with workshop and site teams to make sure designs can be fabricated, installed and maintained safely and efficiently. Apply sound judgement around materials, fabrication methods and buildability across stainless and carbon steel applications. Contribute to design improvements and product development opportunities. We're looking for someone with Proven experience in mechanical draughting, modelling or 3D design within fabrication, structural steel, pipework, manufacturing or a similar environment. Strong knowledge of Design for Manufacture, revision control, fabrication detailing, weld symbols and practical workshop requirements.
