W. H. Davis is a well-established rail freight wagon manufacturer and maintainer now looking to further expand mobile maintenance facilities.

Opportunities have arisen for maintenance fitters operating from our Langwith Junction Works.  The successful applicants will be responsible for the maintenance and modification of rail wagons on and off site. You will work closely with other fitters to undertake maintenance and repairs and quickly resolve day to day problems to ensure a consistently high standard of service delivery. To succeed in these roles you will have a flexible and enthusiastic approach to work, be physically fit and have the ability to use your initiative.  You will be required to work a 39-hour week.  A commitment to customer service, high personal standards and the ability to work as part of a team are essential. 

Ideally you will have a recognised mechanical qualification and/or a time served mechanical background.  A good knowledge of the mechanical/braking system operating on railway wagons would be an advantage, but not essential, since structured training will be provided. A clean driving license is required. These posts are safety critical and subject to medical drug/alcohol screening and Personnel Track Safety Assessments will form part of the selection process.
