Contributing to the global switchgear market is a daily requirement for those working at Anord Mardix, but with the business expanding into new areas at rapid pace, this world-class engineering company is searching for local talent to join the team.

Do you live in and around Blackburn? Do you have an interest in hyperscale switchgear production? Are you looking for a new opportunity to work in a fast-paced, friendly environment?

If you answered yes to any of the questions above, then you may be interested to read more about Anord Mardix and register for their Recruitment Day in Blackburn.

Anord Mardix is a hyperscale switchgear manufacturing and engineering company, with several sites in the UK, Ireland and US. They supply electrical switchgear and modular critical power solutions to large scale clients across several industries, from social media platforms to financial institutions.

What makes their work so unique is not only in their ability to design and manufacture bespoke critical power solutions, but also their ability to install and provide engineering support long after the project is complete – providing a complete end-to-end service for the client.

Lancashire Telegraph:

Hyperscale switchgear is the backbone to the world’s digital landscape. Every online service requires some form of data storage and processing, all of which is powered by the products that Anord Mardix engineers.

With most businesses around the world turning to online solutions now more than ever (even just to host a meeting!) as a direct result of the pandemic, Anord Mardix has experienced unprecedented growth to meet demand.

Therefore, Anord Mardix is looking for help in the form of local talent, based around Blackburn, to keep fuelling company expansion.

As the company grows to meet client demands across the globe, it is creating exciting opportunities for the team internally too. Anord Mardix prides itself on its commitment to promoting talent from within and providing all members of the team with the individual learning opportunities and training required to move to the next step in their careers; be it on the shop floor or in the office.

A prime example of Anord Mardix’s commitment to internal skill development would be Hannah Aspinall, who joined the team in 2019 at our Blackburn site as an Electrical Fitter.

Hannah has worked hard on several large-scale projects since joining, allowing her to gain key experiences which stood her in good stead for seamlessly progressing to Test Engineer after just two and a half years with the company.

Hannah comments, "If there’s anyone looking to become a Test Engineer I would just say go for it. I have worked my way towards it for some time now and it’s been a really rewarding experience. Because of my background as an Electrical Fitter, it has meant that I can understand how everything works, making my job now as a Test Engineer a little easier.”
