Welcome to the James Walker Hub

James Walker is a global advanced engineering and manufacturing organisation that designs and supplies high performance fluid sealing an joint integrity products to virtually every sector of industry. We specialise in the design of seals and tension control fasteners for critical applications, and are proud to enable companies in their transition to green sustainability. We collaborate, as the partner of choice, with original equipment manufacturers and end users to solve their needs. For example, our seals are found on the biggest off-shore wind turbines, on liquid molten salt solar power plants and we are a leader in seals for hydrogen applications.

Our engineers develop proprietary advanced materials, they design and manufacture new seal concepts and validate them in our bespoke state of the art test facilities. We advertise on Gradcracker for direct entry roles for STEM students, and for our graduate engineering placement programme.

We recruit from all STEM disciplines.
