Houghton Le Spring


Build something you can be proud of—together.


We’re working with a world-leading automotive manufacturer with over 100 years of innovation. Their modern, well-organised facility has a strong order book and is continuing to grow and they’re now welcoming Production Operatives to join the team on a long-term basis, with immediate starts available.


This is a supportive, inclusive workplace where people are trained properly, treated with respect, and given opportunities to develop—no matter their background.


The Role

As a Production Operative, you’ll be part of a close-knit production team, where quality, safety, and teamwork matter.


You’ll be trained to:

  • Use specialist equipment such as air tools, spray guns, and hog rings

  • Assemble and produce high-quality automotive components

  • Carry out visual quality checks on your own work

  • Follow clear health & safety processes designed to keep everyone safe

  • Support your teammates to keep production running smoothly


No two days are exactly the same, and you’ll learn valuable skills used across modern manufacturing.


Shift Pattern

This role operates on a two-shift rotation:

Days:

  • Monday – Thursday 6:45am – 3pm

  • Friday – 6:45am – 2:30pm

Lates:

  • Monday – Thursday 4:20pm – 00:35

  • Friday – 2:55pm – 10:40pm


You’ll need to be flexible to work all shifts and overtime when required.

Shift premiums reflect this flexibility.


What We’re Looking For

We’re interested in people, not just CVs.


  • Manufacturing experience is helpful but not essential—full training is provided

  • A positive attitude, reliability, and willingness to learn

  • Ability to work as part of a team in a structured environment


If you’ve worked in care, retail, hospitality, warehousing, or production before, your skills are highly transferable.


What You’ll Get in Return

  • Competitive hourly pay with generous shift premiums

  • Full training and ongoing development

  • Long-term, stable work with permanent opportunities

  • Summer and winter factory shutdowns

  • Subsidised onsite canteen

  • Free tea and coffee

  • Free onsite parking (cars, motorbikes, and bicycles)

  • Leisure facilities (including a pool table)

  • Lockers and personal storage

  • Free feminine hygiene products

  • Regular wellbeing events and initiatives


Our Commitment

This site is committed to providing a safe, respectful, and inclusive working environment where everyone has the opportunity to succeed.

Applications are welcomed from all backgrounds.
