Heavy Plant Fitter RecruitmentManchester
Looking for a heavy plant fitter in Manchester? We don't give you candidates, we give you capacity: heavy plant fitters on contract for immediate cover or permanent for the long term, across Manchester and North West. Typical salary £34,000 to £46,000.
The Heavy Plant Fitter Role
Heavy plant fitters keep excavators, loading shovels, dump trucks and crushing spreads running, and in an industry where a machine down is production lost, a good fitter pays for himself many times over. Demand comfortably exceeds supply: the skill takes years to build, the workforce is ageing, and dealers, hire firms and operators all compete for the same people. ARG places heavy/mobile plant fitters for permanent roles, field-service positions and contract shutdowns.
Aggregates in Manchester & North West
Greater Manchester and the North West combine Pennine hard-rock quarrying with a busy urban ready-mix and surfacing market. Demand spans the full range, from quarry operations in the surrounding hills to coating plants and surfacing gangs serving the conurbation, and surfacing/plant roles in particular are hard to keep staffed through the season.
