Job Description
TRAINEE EXTRUSION SETTER / PRODUCTION OPERATOR
Permanent | Full Time | Rotating Shifts | Bingley
£14.00 per hour starting salary + overtime
10 Recruitment are currently working with a well-established manufacturing business in Bingley who are looking to recruit an experienced Production Operator / Machine Operator to join their team on a permanent basis.
This is an excellent opportunity for someone with a strong and consistent manufacturing background who is looking for long-term stability and wants to develop their skills within plastics manufacturing and extrusion.
Previous experience within plastics, extrusion, packaging, converting or similar manufacturing environments would be highly advantageous.
THE ROLE
Working within a busy plastics manufacturing environment, you will be responsible for operating production and conversion machinery, handling raw materials and finished products, and supporting the smooth running of the manufacturing process.
This is a hands-on and physically demanding manufacturing role, involving regular manual handling and lifting of materials and finished products.
The long-term aim is for the successful candidate to develop into a skilled Extrusion Setter, gaining knowledge and experience across the extrusion process and machinery.
TRAINING & PROGRESSION
Please note: this is not an immediate Extrusion Setter position.
The successful candidate will initially join the business as a Production Operator / Machine Operator and will gradually be trained across the manufacturing process, machinery and plastics operation.
Training will take place alongside the normal production role and over time. Progression into extrusion setting will depend on the individual's performance, reliability, attitude, ability to learn and development of the required technical skills.
This is not an overnight transition. The company is looking for someone who is genuinely interested in building a long-term career within manufacturing and is prepared to learn the process properly.
Previous experience operating machinery within a manufacturing environment is therefore important.
KEY RESPONSIBILITIES
Operating production, conversion, bagging and extrusion machinery
Loading and preparing raw materials and film for production
Learning the extrusion process and machinery as training progresses
Developing machine-setting skills over time
Monitoring machinery and production processes
Carrying out quality checks to ensure products meet customer specifications
Completing production and quality records accurately
Handling and moving raw materials and finished products
Regular lifting and manual handling as part of the production process
Packing and preparing finished products for dispatch
Removing production waste and supporting recycling processes
Identifying and reporting machinery faults or production issues
Maintaining a clean, tidy and safe working area
Working closely with colleagues and supervisors to maintain production output
Following all company health & safety and production procedures THE IDEAL CANDIDATE
The successful candidate will have a solid and consistent employment history within manufacturing.
We are specifically looking for someone who has worked within a production or manufacturing environment and can demonstrate stability in their previous employment.
This is not aimed at candidates whose background is predominantly warehouse, picking, packing or short-term temporary work.
We are looking for someone with genuine hands-on manufacturing experience who is comfortable working around machinery and wants to develop further.
Experience in the following areas would be particularly beneficial:
Plastics manufacturing
Extrusion
Plastic film
Packaging
Converting
Machine operating
Machine setting
Process manufacturing
Industrial manufacturing
Production machinery Candidates from other strong, hands-on manufacturing backgrounds will also be considered.
ESSENTIAL REQUIREMENTS
Previous experience within a manufacturing or production environment
Consistent and stable employment history
Previous experience operating machinery or working around production machinery
Comfortable working in a physically demanding manufacturing environment
Comfortable with regular heavy lifting and manual handling
Reliable and hardworking approach
Good attendance and timekeeping
Good attention to detail
Ability to follow detailed production and safety procedures
Ability to work as part of a manufacturing team
Willingness to learn and develop within the role
Comfortable working rotating shifts DESIRABLE EXPERIENCE

Previous plastics manufacturing experience
Extrusion experience
Plastic film production
Packaging or converting machinery
Previous machine-setting experience
Experience working with raw materials
Experience in process manufacturing
Experience within a fast-paced industrial manufacturing environment SHIFT PATTERN
The role operates on a weekly rotating shift pattern:
Week 1: 06:00 – 14:30
Week 2: 14:00 – 22:30
Week 3: 22:00 – 06:30

£14.00 per hour starting salary
Overtime opportunities
Permanent position
Stable and established manufacturing business
Full training and development
Opportunity to develop plastics manufacturing knowledge
Long-term opportunity to progress into extrusion setting
Genuine career development
Structured rotating shift pattern THE OPPORTUNITY
This is more than a basic Production Operative position, but it is also not an immediate Extrusion Setter role.
The company is looking for someone who already has a good foundation of manufacturing and machine-operating experience and can develop their skills further within a specialist plastics manufacturing environment.
You will need to be comfortable with the physical side of manufacturing, including heavy lifting, loading materials and working around production machinery, while also being prepared to learn and develop technically over time.
The ideal candidate will be someone who has a proven track record of working consistently within manufacturing, is reliable, hands-on and looking for a permanent role where they can build a long-term career.
If you have previous plastics, extrusion, packaging, machine operating or industrial manufacturing experience, this could be an excellent opportunity to develop into a skilled Extrusion Setter.
