##### About this job

Mouldmakers manually create moulds for the production of metal products. They mix sand and hardening materials to obtain a specialised mixture.

The shaped material is then left to set, later to be used as a mould in the production of ferrous and non-ferrous metal castings.

Scope note: Excludes people producing moulds for non-metallic materials. Excludes people using machines. Includes people producing jewellery and bijouterie.
