If your crimps are neat and your looms are tidier than everyone else's, read on.

Our client is a leading defence and aerospace manufacturer, and they need a hands-on Electrical Assembly Technician to build cable harnesses and electro-mechanical assemblies to exacting military standards.

You'll:

Build and terminate harnesses and looms from engineering drawings
Crimp, solder and assemble connectors, then dress and lace to spec
Fit heat shrink, backshells and shielding
Self-inspect as you go
Test continuity, insulation resistance and function
Keep traceability and records spot on, and flag non-conformances early
You'll need:

Proven harness, wiring loom or electro-mechanical assembly experience
Confidence reading drawings, schematics and wiring schedules
Hands-on crimping, soldering and cable prep skills
An eye for detail and the discipline to follow processes precisely
The ability to work independently and as part of a team
IPC/WHMA-A-620 and J-STD-001 certification are a bonus, as is defence, aerospace or naval experience. Security clearance experience helps too.

It's a chance to do skilled work where quality is the whole point, on hardware that matters.
