Job Description

If your welds pass X-ray, this pressure vessel manufacturer in Alberton wants you. You'll work with a small crew, so being easy to work with matters as much as skill.

This post is Alberton-based, with most of your time spent at a pressure vessel manufacturer.

What you'll actually do

  • Grind and repair welds flagged by the QC inspector
  • Roll and form plate for tanks, chutes and hoppers
  • Follow the welding procedure specification for every joint you weld
  • Keep a hot work permit open and a fire watch in place during shutdowns
  • Sign off your weld map and traceability sheets for each spool
  • TIG weld stainless steel tanks and fittings with proper back-purging

You'll need

  • You can read fabrication and isometric drawings without help
  • Willing to work shutdowns, long shifts and weekends when the plant is down
  • Medical fitness certificate for industrial sites, or willing to get one
  • At least 2 years of production or site welding after qualifying
  • Steady hands and good eyesight, with or without glasses
  • Valid welder coding to ISO 9606-1 or ASME IX in the processes the job needs

What you get

  • Accommodation and meals paid on out-of-town shutdowns
  • Shutdown bonus and site allowance for work away from home
  • Leather welding PPE and auto-darkening helmet supplied
