Job Description: Steel Fixer, Sheffield S1
We are currently seeking a skilled and safety-conscious Steel Fixer for a major construction project in the heart of Sheffield S1. This role is critical to the structural integrity of a new commercial development, requiring precision, experience, and a strong work ethic. The successful candidate will be working as part of a dynamic team on-site, responsible for the fabrication, placement, and securing of steel reinforcement (rebar) within concrete structures. This is a fantastic opportunity for a Steel Fixer seeking immediate, well-paid work with a reputable agency that understands the local construction landscape in South Yorkshire.
At StaffDirect, we pride ourselves on being more than just a temporary staffing agency; we are your career partner. We connect dedicated tradespeople with the region's leading contractors. By applying through us for this Steel Fixer position, you gain access to a dedicated consultant who will manage your placement, ensure you are paid accurately and on time every week, and advocate for your best interests on-site. Whether you're looking for a long-term assignment or flexible temporary work, we have a range of construction and industrial jobs available across Sheffield and beyond.
Key Responsibilities for the Steel Fixer Role
- Reading and interpreting engineering drawings and bar bending schedules to determine the precise layout, quantity, and size of reinforcement steel required.
- Cutting, bending, and shaping steel reinforcement bars (rebar) using hand tools, power tools, and specialist machinery, ensuring all work meets specified tolerances.
- Positioning and securely tying rebar and mesh within formwork or excavations using tie wire and pliers, creating the skeletal framework for concrete structures such as foundations, columns, beams, and slabs.
- Installing spacers, chairs, and other supports to maintain correct concrete cover and alignment of the reinforcement as specified in the design.
- Working collaboratively with other trades on-site, including carpenters, concreters, and crane operators, to ensure efficient workflow and strict adherence to project timelines and safety protocols.
Essential Skills & Requirements
- Proven experience as a Steel Fixer on UK construction sites, with a strong portfolio of completed work.
- A valid CSCS Card (Construction Skills Certification Scheme) is mandatory for site access. A CPCS or NPORS card for relevant plant may be advantageous.
- Excellent understanding of health and safety regulations, including working at height, manual handling, and the use of PPE. A strong, demonstrable safety record is non-negotiable.
- Physical fitness and stamina to perform manual labour in all weather conditions, along with your own basic hand tools (pliers, podgers, tape measure, etc.).
In addition to these core requirements, we value reliability, a positive attitude, and the ability to work effectively as part of a team. If you have experience with complex reinforcement detailing or have worked on large-scale commercial or infrastructure projects, your application will be highly regarded. For those looking to diversify their skills, we also recruit for a wide range of construction labourer jobs and specialist trades across the UK.
