Introduction

Acorn by Synergie is recruiting Production Operatives for Howmet Aerospace in Exeter on a long-term basis.

This is a hands-on, physical role within an industrial manufacturing environment. A key part of the position involves using high-pressure water jets to clean and remove casting material from manufactured products, helping to prepare them for the next stage of the production process.

This is not a traditional cleaning role involving offices or amenities. The work forms part of the industrial production process and involves working around manufacturing machinery and equipment, with additional production tasks forming part of the role.

The work can be physically demanding and the environment can involve both hot and cold conditions, making this role suited to people who enjoy practical, active work and are comfortable working in an industrial setting.
