Mansfield Pollard boosted by deal - graduate jobs

Engineering graduates might be interested in 12 new manufacturing vacancies at Bradford-based Mansfield Pollard.

The jobs have been made available after the company secured a major international contract worth £2.5 million with an international data centre operator based in the south.

Mansfield Pollard will manufacture 12 bespoke air optimisation units and matched condensing units to be used worldwide.

There are a number of jobs available immediately ranging from project managers, panel wirers and pipework engineers to work in a new data technology division that is being established as part of a restructure.

Finance director Joanna Robinson, said: "The customer came to us because this technology was not available elsewhere. Our bespoke solution, which is currently in the production and commissioning stages, is innovative because it is compact and extremely energy-efficient with very low electricity use, making it cost-effective and good for the environment.

"We are pleased to be supporting the local economy by creating jobs during such a tough economic climate. We are very keen to develop all seven product areas of our business by expanding our approach to research and development which is likely to create more senior positions in the company in due course."
