Toolmaker (Press Tools & Moulds)

You'll keep machines turning and parts in spec at the sugar mill in Epping. This is a good step for someone who wants proper routine and a manager who notices good work.

The site is in Epping; early starts mean public transport timing matters, so check your route before applying.

• Help with electrical fault-finding on motors and sensors as a millwright
• Maintain hydraulic and pneumatic systems on production lines
• Record work and spares used on the job card or CMMS
• Inspect and adjust conveyors, chains and sprockets
• Follow the lockout procedure before any work on machinery

• Willing to work shifts, standby and weekend shutdowns
• You read engineering drawings and measure with micrometers and verniers
• Own basic hand tools, or willing to build up a set
• Trade test as Fitter and Turner, Fitter, Millwright or Toolmaker

• Chance to study further toward a technician diploma
• Paid overtime on shutdowns
• Shift and standby allowances

• Expect a practical test. Measure twice and work cleanly, because the assessor watches your habits as much as the result.
• If you can machine parts as well as fit them, say so clearly. Many factories want both skills in one person.
