Wakefield | Permanent | To £55,000 DOE

This isn't volume detailing. It's technical work on structural and architectural steel where the models you build directly determine what gets fabricated, what gets ordered, and what gets installed on site. The business needs a detailer who understands what happens beyond the screen - someone who knows the workshop, reads a weld symbol properly, and catches the clash before it becomes a site problem.

What You'll Be Doing

• Building accurate 3D models in Tekla Structures for structural and architectural steelwork projects
• Producing fabrication drawings, assembly drawings, GA drawings, and bolt lists
• Generating material take-offs and cutting lists for procurement and fabrication
• Running clash detection and coordinating across disciplines
• Preparing complete manufacturing packs ready for the shop floor
• Working directly with structural engineers, project managers, and fabrication teams to resolve design issues before they escalate
• Attending design coordination meetings and ensuring drawings meet project specs, industry standards, and fabrication reality
• Supporting junior detailers with technical guidance and contributing to best practice across the team

The Environment

Design office-based in Leeds, attached to a structural and architectural steelwork business with a clear focus on detailing quality and fabrication efficiency. This is a team that understands the relationship between a clean model and a smooth production run. Standards are high, the project mix is varied, and the people around you know their trade.

What You'll Need

Essential

• 5+ years as a Tekla Detailer in structural steelwork
• Advanced Tekla Structures proficiency - efficient workflows, not just basic modelling
• Solid fabrication knowledge - welding symbols, tolerances, connection design, and an understanding of what actually happens in the workshop
• Structural and secondary steelwork experience across a range of project types
• Ability to read engineering drawings and identify issues before they become problems
• Clean, accurate models - dimensions right, bolt lists that add up, drawings the workshop can use

Desirable

• Experience mentoring or supervising junior detailers
• BIM workflow knowledge - IFC, DWG, data exchange formats
• Familiarity with Eurocodes and BS standards
• Understanding of how detailing decisions affect cost, programme, and commercial risk

What's On Offer

• Salary to £55,000 depending on experience
• Permanent, full-time position
• Wakefield-based design office role
• Diverse structural and architectural steel project portfolio
• Ongoing technical training and genuine progression based on capability

About the Business

An established steelwork business in Wakefield specialising in structural and architectural steel, with a reputation built on detailing accuracy, fabrication efficiency, and technical coordination. The team is established, the standards are consistent, and the project portfolio gives detailers work they can actually take pride in.

Wakefield (with UK site travel) | Permanent | £40,000 - £45,000

This is a hands-on draughting role sitting at the centre of a busy piping design office. You will take designs from concept through to fully packaged technical drawings - work that directly enables fabrication and installation teams to get on with the job.

South Yorkshire | Fixed-Term Contract | £30,000 - £35,000 DOE

This is a generalist HR Advisor role covering the full employee relations spectrum - absence, disciplinaries, grievances, performance - within a busy manufacturing and engineering environment. The business needs someone who can hit the ground running, not someone who needs six months to find their feet.

If you know your way around UK employment law and can hold a difficult conversation with a line manager without needing a script, this is worth a look.

What You'll Be Doing

• Advising managers and employees on a broad range of HR matters, day to day
• Managing ER cases end to end - absence management, disciplinary and grievance proceedings, performance management
• Supporting recruitment and onboarding activity as required
• Interpreting and applying HR policy in line with current employment legislation
• Maintaining accurate HR records and producing management information when needed
• Contributing to HR projects and supporting any organisational change activity as it arises

The Environment

A well-established business in South Yorkshire with a hands-on culture. HR here is operational, not ornamental - you'll be working directly with managers on the floor and expected to provide practical, clear guidance rather than theoretical advice. The team is small and the workload is varied.

What You'll Need

Essential:

• Solid background in a generalist HR Advisor role
• Strong working knowledge of UK employment law and current HR best practice
• Demonstrable experience handling ER cases independently
• Ability to manage a varied caseload and prioritise without being micromanaged

Doncaster

£38,000 to £40,000

The Role

We need a Mechanical Engineer to join our workshop at Old Denaby, Doncaster. This isn't a desk job with buzzwords - it's hands-on engineering work where you build, test, and commission machinery that actually works at scale.

You'll be involved in the complete lifecycle: designing mechanical systems, building them right, testing everything properly before it ships, then taking it on-site to make it perform. That's the full picture. Most roles give you one piece. This gives you all of it.

What You'll Actually Do

Design & Build

• Mechanical build of general machinery - understanding the fundamentals and getting it right
• Input into mechanical design - your practical experience informing how things should actually be built
• Pneumatic design and build - panel design, machine configuration, thinking through every connection
• Small fabrications - welding, burning, drilling. Hands-on work that demands precision

Testing

• Commission machinery in our UK workshop before anything leaves our doors
• Run machines through their paces, catch issues, fix them properly
• Understand what works and what doesn't - not in theory, in reality

Installation & Commissioning

• Travel to steel plants (national and international) to install and commission equipment
• Around 6 weeks per year travelling, typically 2-week stints per site
• Be the person who makes sure everything works when it matters—on the customer's floor
• Troubleshoot real-world conditions, not test conditions

What You Need

Essential Knowledge

• Mechanical and pneumatics design - this is your foundation
• Transmission drive assemblies - you understand how power moves through a system
• Structural assemblies - you can think about loads, stress, and durability
• BTEC Mechanical Engineering to HNC Level or equivalent

Desirable

• Basic hydraulic knowledge
• Electrical knowledge
• Experience with machinery build and commissioning

You don't need everything. You need to understand mechanics, think practically, and want to solve problems that matter.

Operational Hours: 40 hours per week

• Monday to Thursday: 08:00 to 17:00 (30 min lunch)
• Friday: 08:00 to 14:00 (no lunch)

What Comes With It

• 25 days holiday entitlement
• Private pension
• Death in service provision

Travel: Expect around 6 weeks per year on international and UK installations—typically 2-week trips depending on location.

Why This Matters

You're joining a company that actually manufactures and tests equipment in the UK. Not outsourced, not cut corners. Everything gets tested before it ships. That means your work has to be right, and you'll see immediately whether it is.

You'll work with real machinery, real challenges, and real customers. You'll understand the full journey from design through to commissioning. That's the kind of work that builds genuine engineering competence.
