About the Role
Our client is a global leader in manufacturing, currently scaling their West Drayton site. They need a hands-on, experienced Injection Mould Setter to drive injection moulding excellence. This isn’t about tossing on moulds, it’s about optimising processes, ensuring reliability, and delivering consistent quality.

Organised, reliability-focused, and safety-conscious
Why This Role Stands Out
At 5S, we’re about quality, not quantity. We don’t pile on candidates we build relationships and trust. You’ll join a company that values craftsmanship, teamwork, and continuous improvement. Expect professional growth, performance-based rewards, and clear communication.
