In a rolling mill, every minute the line is stopped costs production. Quick, well-prepared size and pass changes keep it moving. This listing is for a Mill Assistant in steel manufacturing in Abu Dhabi, on a 12-month renewable contract.
About the Role
As Mill Assistant you would support the roller operator with pass and guide changing, and keep spare rolling guides checked and ready at all times.

You would work with roller operators, the furnace operator, the senior roller and the main pulpit operator on mill line jobs, and keep all gas cutting sets in good working condition and ready for use.
