Interesting Industry Fact: before the first jaw crusher was patented in 1858, road rock was broken with hand hammers, and two days of labour made one cubic yard of it. A modern mobile crusher gets through that in seconds. Provided someone keeps it running, and that’s where you come in.

I’m David from Itch. My client’s Cockburn workshop looks after heavy mobile plant and crushing and screening gear, and they need a Workshop Manager to own it. You’ll be keeping crushers fed and running, so I’ve written this one as a crushing circuit.

ON SPEC: the honest bit

Hit apply and tell me about the best workshop turnaround you’ve led. I’ll call for a confidential chat, then you’ll meet the client.

Plenty of managers say they’re crushing it. You’ll have the equipment to prove it.
