Inspection & Quality Control: Checking cylinders before and after the filling process to spot sub-standard, leaking, or defective units, and separating them for maintenance.
Gas Cylinder Filling: Operating filling machinery to fill cylinders efficiently according to strict quality guidelines and standard time frames.
Documentation & Safety Audits: Carrying out mandatory daily pre-use inspection checks on moving equipment like trolleys and forklift trucks.

Perks: Opportunities for overtime and weekend work with attractive premium allowances.
???? Candidate Requirements
