• Operating manufacturing equipment and production machinery
• Reading and interpreting technical drawings

• Experience in manufacturing, concrete, precast, carpentry, steel fixing, or a similar hands-on environment
• Ability to read and interpret plans and drawings
• Strong attention to detail and quality workmanship
• A positive attitude and willingness to learn
• Commitment to health and safety
• Good communication and teamwork skills
• Physical fitness and ability to undertake manual work
• Gantry crane, forklift, reinforcement, or manufacturing experience would be advantageous but is not essential.
