Steel Fabrication Manager
A Steel Fabrication Manager is the mastermind behind the scenes of a metalworking operation—part strategist, part technician, and full-time problem solver. Their job is to ensure that steel components are fabricated efficiently, safely, and to exact specifications.
Here’s what they typically do:
Oversee daily operations in the fabrication shop, including planning, scheduling, and managing production workflows.
Coordinate with engineers and designers to interpret blueprints and ensure that fabrication aligns with technical requirements.
Lead and train teams of welders, fabricators, and machine operators, fostering a culture of safety, precision, and continuous improvement.
Ensure quality control, inspecting finished products and processes to meet industry standards and client expectations.
Manage inventory and equipment, ordering materials, maintaining tools, and arranging repairs when needed.
Enforce safety protocols and maintain a clean, compliant work environment.
Communicate with clients and stakeholders, providing updates and ensuring timely delivery of projects2.
In essence, they’re the glue that holds the steel fabrication process together—from raw material to finished structure.
Cambridgeshire (abbreviated Cambs.)[note 1] is a county in the East of England, bordering Lincolnshire to the north, Norfolk to the north-east, Suffolk to the east, Essex and Hertfordshire to the south, and Bedfordshire and Northamptonshire to the west. The city of Cambridge is the county town. Modern Cambridgeshire was formed in 1974 through the amalgamation of two older counties: Cambridgeshire and Isle of Ely, comprising the historic county of Cambridgeshire (including the Isle of Ely); and Huntingdon and Peterborough, comprising the historic county of Huntingdonshire and the Soke of Peterborough, which historically had been part of Northamptonshire. Cambridgeshire contains most of the region known as Silicon Fen.
The county is now divided between Cambridgeshire County Council and Peterborough City Council, which since 1998 has formed a separate unitary authority. In the county there are five district councils, Cambridge City Council, East Cambridgeshire District Council, Fenland District Council, Huntingdonshire District Council and South Cambridgeshire District Council.[4]
