Cory Group median: 14 days open

The posting

Cory is one of the UK’s leading resource management, recycling, and energy recovery companies. We use the River Thames as a green highway, saving around 100,000 truck movements a year – a vital way of getting traffic off the road and making London safer and less polluted. As a river-based business, we are proud to support the growth of the Thames economy and the wider inland waterways sector.

As a Plater/Welder at Cory, you’ll play a hands-on role in maintaining and repairing the vessels that keep London’s waste moving by river. Working as part of our Ship Repair Services team, you’ll support both in-house operations and third‑party customers, helping ensure our fleet of tugs, barges and containers remains safe, compliant and reliable.

This is a varied, practical role where no two days are the same. From fabricating steel barge and vessel sections to carrying out emergency repairs and salvage work, your skills will be used across a wide range of engineering challenges. You’ll also support yard activities, vessel movements in and out of slipways, and the general upkeep of our Gravesend site. While based at Gravesend, you’ll occasionally be asked to work at other sites, typically our Charlton location. Safety and environmental responsibility sit at the heart of everything we do. You’ll work in full compliance with international, national and company legislation, take part in emergency exercises, and help ensure Cory’s high standards are met every day.

You’ll also have the opportunity to support the development of others, including assisting in the training of apprentices. It’s a role where your experience matters – not just in what you build and repair, but in the example you set for the next generation of engineers.

We’re looking for someone with solid hot works experience, including welding, fabrication and burning, who is confident working with heavy machinery and engineering equipment. You’ll be comfortable turning technical drawings into high-quality, practical solutions.

An understanding of working at height and confined or enclosed space environments is essential, as is a strong commitment to safe working practices. You’ll take personal responsibility for maintaining a safe working environment for yourself and those around you.

This role suits someone who enjoys teamwork and flexibility. You’ll work closely with colleagues across Ship Repair Services and be adaptable with working hours when operational demands require it.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
