Job Description

CNC PRESS BRAKE SETTER / OPERATOR

ALUMINIUM EXPERIENCE REQUIRED

Location Hixon, Staffordshire
Salary £17.50 – £19.50 per hour - Time & a Half after 39.5 hours
Full-time | Permanent

We’re recruiting for a skilled CNC Press Brake Setter / Operator to join an innovative engineering & R&D-style manufacturing lab producing high-precision, low-volume components.

This is NOT a button-pushing production role.

We need someone who can take a job from engineering drawing to finished part, independently and accurately.

🔧 THE ROLE:

✔ Set CNC press brake machines from scratch
✔ Read and interpret engineering drawings
✔ Select tooling & determine bend sequences
✔ Produce one-off and small batch precision parts
✔ First-off inspection & quality control
✔ Work in a fast-paced innovation / prototype environment

ESSENTIAL REQUIREMENT:

  * 

    Proven experience working with ALUMINIUM on press brake machinery
    (including spring-back control, tolerances, and forming behaviour)

WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR:

  * 

    Strong CNC press brake setting experience (not just operating)

  * 

    Confident working without USB / pre-loaded programs

  * 

    Solid sheet metal fabrication knowledge

  * 

    Ability to work independently with minimal supervision

  * 

    High attention to detail and pride in workmanship

🚀 THE ENVIRONMENT:

You’ll be joining a modern innovation lab, not a traditional production shop. Work includes prototypes, bespoke components, and constantly evolving technical challenges.

No two jobs are the same.

**If you’re a proper setter/operator with aluminium experience who can read drawings and deliver quality without hand-holding, we want to hear from you

Bank details.
