One of Shropshire’s largest employers headed to the UK Metals Expo last week to launch its next recruitment drive. Bridgnorth Aluminium (BAL), which is Britain’s only fully integrated producer of flat rolled aluminium coils, is looking to fill 10 positions at its site in Bridgnorth and believes the biggest event in UK metals was the perfect place to raise awareness of a career in this sector.

The company took its largest ever presence at the show, where it also sought to champion the role of aluminium as a critical material for sectors such as aerospace, automotive, defence and energy. Bosses at the firm want it to have the same standing and political attention as steel, especially considering aluminium is an infinitely recyclable metal and one suited to achieving a true circular economy.
