Summary

Masstemps are currently recruiting for a Factory Operative to join our ceramics manufacturing team in Pershore, Worcester.

Working within the Finishing Room, you will be responsible for carefully finishing, inspecting and carrying out light assembly work on small and intricate ceramic cores and components.

This is a precision-focused role where patience, concentration and good attention to detail are essential. The majority of the work is carried out seated at a workstation, making it an ideal position for someone who enjoys detailed, hands-on work in a clean and organised manufacturing environment.

Full training will be provided, although previous experience in manufacturing, ceramics, assembly, finishing or other detailed hand-work would be advantageous.

Key Responsibilities

• Carefully file and finish small, intricate ceramic cores and components.

• Remove imperfections and excess material to achieve the required finish.

• Visually inspect finished components for quality, accuracy and defects.

• Carry out light assembly of ceramic parts and components.

• Follow detailed work instructions and quality standards.

• Handle small and delicate components carefully to prevent damage.

• Identify and report any defects or quality issues.

• Maintain a clean, tidy and organised workstation.

• Work consistently to production requirements and deadlines.

• Complete basic production and quality records where required.

• Follow all company health and safety procedures.

• Work as part of a friendly and supportive production team.

We are looking for someone who:

• Has excellent attention to detail.

• Is patient and comfortable carrying out repetitive, intricate work.

• Has good hand-eye coordination and dexterity.

• Takes pride in producing accurate, high-quality work.

• Is comfortable working with small components.

• Can concentrate for extended periods of time.

• Is reliable, punctual and hardworking.

• Can follow instructions and work to specific quality standards.

• Is comfortable working independently as well as part of a team.

• Has a positive attitude and willingness to learn.

Previous factory or manufacturing experience is desirable but not essential, as full training will be provided. Experience involving detailed hand-finishing, assembly, inspection or precision work would be beneficial.
