Apprentice NDT Technician

The role involves creating inspection sketches, supporting customer-witnessed inspections, preparing documentation to meet customer expectations and maintaining detailed records of all work undertaken. You will work across all areas of the business—and occasionally off-site—liaising with operational teams to ensure items are correctly identified and safely positioned for inspection.

As part of your development, you will actively work towards additional NDT qualifications, undertake internal and external training and follow all Health & Safety requirements. This position requires
attention to detail, a commitment to high standards and a willingness to learn and grow within a specialist technical discipline.

Training:

Under the guidance of experienced NDT personnel, you will learn how to inspect castings, welds and forged or wrought products, ensuring all testing is carried out in line with written procedures and technical requirements.

Once qualified, you will perform NDT examinations independently, accurately record results and produce certified reports using the company’s reporting systems.

Training Outcome:

There will be opportunites to gain more Level 2 NDT methods.

Employer Description:

We manufacture some of the world’s largest steel castings and forgings, ranging from 1 to 350 tonnes. You don’t need to be a metallurgist expert to know that is really big and really heavy! When it comes to steel production anything that’s heavy and technically complex is where we add real value to our customers. We produce a wide range of products for mills and presses, nuclear, defence, power generation, offshore oil and gas and materials processing industries. It is this diversity of products that allows us to offer a number of different opportunities across our business. Check out our website for more information and images of the exciting work we do here. We have a long and established history within Sheffield spanning over 170 years…. In 2021 we were acquired by the Ministry of Defence (MOD). This has given our business a new focus, marking an exciting and monumental time for our future. We have also secured over £400m of new investment over the next 10 years to support our defence-critical assets, including plans for a new heavy forge line and building, a flood alleviation scheme and major machine tool replacements. There really is no better time to join us!
