Elevation Recruitment Group are working with a specialist engineering business to recruit a highly skilled Hardfacing Welder to join their Welding Shop department.

This role is focused on producing high-quality hardfacing and weld overlay work to strict customer drawings and specifications. The components manufactured are used in extremely hostile and high-wear environments, meaning precision, durability and quality are critical.

Key Responsibilities:
  • Producing high-quality hardfacing and weld overlays in line with customer specifications

  • MIG and TIG welding to high standards and tolerances

  • Reading and interpreting engineering drawings and technical documentation

  • Inspecting completed work and carrying out basic quality checks

  • Maintaining welding equipment and adhering to all HSE procedures

  • Working to agreed timescales without compromising on quality

We are keen to speak with candidates who have:
  • Time-served welding background with strong MIG and TIG experience

  • Proven experience in hardfacing or a strong technical understanding of wear-resistant applications

  • Ability to confidently read and work from engineering drawings

  • High attention to detail and pride in producing quality work

  • Strong awareness of health and safety responsibilities

  • Flexibility to support business needs where required

Desirable:
  • PTAW experience

  • Formal welding qualifications or coding

  • Experience working with wear plates, overlays and specialist consumables

What's on offer:
  • Competitive remuneration

  • Stable, long-term opportunity within a specialist welding environment

  • Ongoing training and development opportunities

  • Supportive and collaborative team culture

This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced welder looking to specialise further within hardfacing and wear-resistant applications rather than general fabrication.
