Working for a long established and family owned British Surgical Instrument Manufacturer in Sheffield, the successful candidate will work directly with the Production Foremen and Shop Floor Staff.

Must have previous experience in similar roles, and be time served minimum of 3 Years. Additional on the job training will be provided.

Main Duties Include:

From blacksmithing to basketry, from weaving to woodturning, we have an incredible range of heritage craft skills in the UK and some of the best craftspeople in the world. But many of these skills are in the hands of an ageing population.

SPAIRE Hip Instruments are exclusively available to purchase at Platts & Nisbett.

The SPAIRE technique (Sparing Piriformis And Internus, Repair Externus) involves a muscle sparing posterior approach to the hip. Fewer tendons are damaged using the SPAIRE technique than any other approach to the hip as it involves division (and subsequent repair) of only one small tendon. This technique allows patients to mobilise without any post-operative restriction to their activities.

We currently have a Job Vacancy for an experienced Customer Service Administrator.

Hours:

34.5 hours per week (Monday - Friday)

Mon – Thurs: 9am – 4:45pm

Fri: 9am – 4:15pm

Happy 18th Birthday to our latest apprentice, our first female engineer.

She is Platts & Nisbett’s first female surgical instrument maker, and to our knowledge, the only female in the country who is learning how to make surgical instruments by hand.

In last year’s Apprentice Interviews, she scored the highest of all candidates in our practical test, and was chosen from a group of strong applicants.
