This vacancy is for an Apprentice Sheet Metal Fabricator/CAM Operator based in Haslingden.
The broad purpose of the occupation is to carry out metal fabrication work using materials such as rolled steel joists, columns, and steel plate. Caswell Engineering Services Limited, known simply as Caswell throughout the industry, is a Ventilation and Air–Conditioning manufacturing and contracting business.
Caswell has been owned and operated by the same family since it was established by Colin Coxen in 1969. Day–to–day management was proudly passed to the next generation in the 1990s through siblings Richard, Charles, Carolyn & Robert, and has continued to thrive from our manufacturing base in Lancashire ever since.
We work with many high–profile names in the restaurant sector and other vertical markets. Maintaining excellent relationships with our clients is key, and over the decades we have formed strong bonds with giants in the high–street restaurant sector, such as McDonald’s and Nando’s.
Caswell also currently provides HVAC products and services to respected brands such as Dishoom, Wagamama, Wingstop, Chaiiwala, and Deliveroo.
You will initially carry out sheet metal fabrication and CAD training at T2000, plus sheet metal fabrication and CAM training in the company. You will be involved in the manufacture of sheet metal ventilation ductwork. Once initial training is complete, the focus will shift to CAM – inputting ductwork components on our Computer Aided Manufacture system for our CNC machine processes. This will follow the Engineering Technician route leading to a Level 3 qualification.
This role will be split between workshop and office, and you will be required to:
* Work as part of a sheet metal ventilation ductwork fabrication team
* Carry out sheet metal fabrication activities, e.g., cutting, forming, and assembly of sheet metal components
* Carry out MIG and TIG welding activities
* Input jobs on our Computer Aided Manufacture (CAM) system for CNC machine processes
The practical workshop activities are essential as a foundation for the CAM Operator role.

The apprentice will be working towards completing the Metal Fabricator Standard which will include the following:
* L3 Diploma in Advanced Manufacturing Engineering (Development Knowledge)
* L3 Extended Diploma in Advanced Manufacturing Engineering (Development Knowledge)
* Functional skills in English and Maths (if not already achieved)
