General Company Information
My client is a small business with 7 to 10 staff, all of whom are hands-on, including the
Directors. The products we manufacture change on a frequent basis, so operators are not usually working on only one particular job for extended periods. The workshop is generally quiet but friendly, busy but with a fairly relaxed atmosphere. All tools and equipment required for the job will be provided.
