Our Company
CSE is a specialist supplier of precision engineered sheet metal parts, fabricated sheet metal frames and other components to a varied number of sectors which include but are not exclusive to: science, medical, food industry, automotive, electronics, robotics and automation, retail, and rail.

The Role – Skilled Sheet Metal Fabricator/Welder

We are looking for a fully skilled Sheet Metal Fabricator/Welder with MIG and TIG welding experience on mild steel, stainless steel, and aluminium. The successful candidate will be producing high-quality sheet metal and box section enclosures from 1mm to 3mm material, working to detailed engineering drawings and specifications.

You must be confident working independently and as part of a team, able to interpret both 1st and 3rd angle drawings, and capable of welding and dressing fabricated parts to a high standard.

The Role:

  • Fabricating and welding mild steel, aluminium, and stainless steel to a high standard

  • Working with thin sheet metal and box section frames (1mm–3mm)

  • Reading and interpreting 1st and 3rd angle technical drawings

  • Welding and dressing components ensuring they remain square, flat, and within tolerance

  • Working to production deadlines while maintaining quality standards

  • Following safe working practices and maintaining a clean working environment

  • Flexible to work overtime and shifts as required

    Our Requirements:

  • Fully skilled Sheet Metal Fabricator/Welder

  • MIG & TIG welding experience across mild steel, stainless, and aluminium

  • Proven ability to read and work from technical drawings

  • Experience in working with thin gauge sheet metal (1–3mm) and box section

  • Experience with other sheet metal machinery such as presses, guillotines, or lasers is desirable

  • Qualified to City & Guilds Level 3 or NVQ Level 3 equivalent in Fabrication and Welding – Sheet Metalworking

  • Strong attention to detail and ability to work unsupervised

    The Package:

    As a Skilled Sheet Fabricator/Welder you will be working Monday to Thursday, 7:30 am to 4:45 pm, and will benefit from:

Where to Advertise Robotics Jobs in the UK (2026 Guide)

Advertising robotics jobs in the UK requires a different approach to most technical hiring. The candidate pool spans mechanical engineers, software developers, controls specialists, computer vision researchers and systems integrators — a multidisciplinary mix that general job boards are poorly equipped to reach. The strongest robotics candidates are often embedded in research groups, defence programmes or advanced manufacturing environments, and move between roles through specialist networks and industry events rather than mainstream platforms. This guide, published by RoboticsJobs.co.uk, covers where to advertise robotics roles in the UK in 2026, how the main platforms compare, what employers should expect to pay, and what the data says about hiring across different role types.

Robotics Jobs UK 2026: What to Expect Over the Next 3 Years

Robotics is having a moment that feels qualitatively different from the cycles of hype and disappointment that have characterised the sector in previous decades. The convergence of advances in AI, computer vision, battery technology, and hardware manufacturing has brought robotics to an inflection point — one where the gap between what robots can do in controlled laboratory conditions and what they can do in the unpredictable complexity of the real world is closing faster than at any previous point in the discipline's history. For job seekers, this inflection point is creating a jobs market that is expanding rapidly across a far wider range of industries and role types than robotics has historically occupied. Automotive and manufacturing remain significant employers, but they are now joined by logistics and warehousing, healthcare, agriculture, construction, defence, and the emerging category of humanoid robotics — each generating distinct hiring demand and drawing on overlapping but meaningfully different skill sets. The candidates who will thrive over the next three years are those who understand where the sector is heading — which application areas are scaling from pilot to production, which technologies are defining the architecture of modern robotic systems, and how the definition of a robotics career is evolving beyond the mechanical engineering core toward a much richer intersection of software, AI, and systems engineering. This article breaks down what the UK robotics jobs market is likely to look like through to 2028 — covering the titles emerging right now, the technologies driving employer demand, the skills that will matter most, and how to position your career at the leading edge of one of the most exciting technology transitions of the coming decade.

New Robotics Employers to Watch in 2026: UK and Global Companies Transforming Automation Careers

Robotics is moving rapidly from factory floors into healthcare, logistics, agriculture, autonomous systems, and consumer products. As automation becomes embedded in everyday life, companies are investing in robots that operate alongside humans, analyse environments in real time, and learn from data. In 2026, demand for robotics engineers, software developers, system integrators, and AI specialists continues to surge. For professionals exploring opportunities on www.RoboticsJobs.co.uk , understanding the employers that are scaling, winning contracts, securing investment, or expanding into the UK market is crucial. This article highlights top robotics employers to watch in 2026, spanning innovative startups, high‑growth scale‑ups, and established global technology leaders with strong UK presence.
