5-Axis CNC Programmer — Hypermill / Hurco | Milton Keynes
If you know Hypermill and you've got 5-axis programming experience, this is a role worth stopping for. We're working exclusively with a well-established subcontract precision engineering business in Milton Keynes to place an experienced CNC Programmer into a modern, well-equipped facility where the work is varied, the kit is current, and the hours are genuinely good.
This isn't a tick-box programming role. You'll be taking complex components from CAD model to finished part, working across a diverse mix of subcontract work that keeps things interesting. If you're the type of programmer who takes ownership of their toolpaths and takes pride in the result, you'll fit right in.
What you'll be doing
* Offline programming of 5-axis and 3-axis components using Hypermill (Open Mind)
* Working from customer CAD models and engineering drawings to produce efficient, optimised toolpaths
* Setting up and proving out programs on Hurco machining centres
* Collaborating with the shop floor team to refine programs and improve cycle times
* Managing your own workload across a varied mix of subcontract components
* Maintaining high standards of quality and first-off accuracy throughout
What we're looking for
* Proven experience programming with Hypermill (Open Mind) — this is essential, not desirable
* Strong 5-axis programming capability; 3+2 and simultaneous experience both valued
* Familiarity with Hurco controls is a distinct advantage
* Ability to read and interpret complex engineering drawings and 3D CAD models
* A methodical, quality-first approach to programming and proving out
* Subcontract machining background preferred — comfortable working across different component types and materials
* Someone who can work independently and take ownership of their output
Why this role stands out
* Up to £50k for the right programmer — this is a serious salary for a serious candidate
* Friday finish at 1pm every week — one of the best working weeks in the industry
* Varied subcontract work — no two weeks the same, genuinely interesting components
* Modern Hurco machinery with Hypermill CAM — proper kit, properly maintained
* Overtime paid at time and a third — your extra effort is properly rewarded
* Stable, well-run business with a strong order book and a team that takes quality seriouslyDo not include the following in your job application, CV, or cover letter:
