  * Competitive salary

  * 25 days annual leave plus Bank Holidays

  * Company pension

  * Healthcare benefits

  * Employee Assistance Programme (EAP)

  * Holiday Purchase Scheme

  * Birthday Leave

  * Long service awards

What You'll Be Doing

  * Create and develop offline CNC programmes using SolidCAM or CATIA V5.

  * Programme complex components for 5-axis CNC milling machines.

  * Select appropriate tooling and machining strategies to support efficient production.

  * Verify CNC programmes using Vericut where applicable.

  * Design basic fixtures and special workholding required for manufacture.

  * Produce basic CAD models and engineering drawings for internally designed tooling.

  * Work closely with Engineering and Manufacturing to resolve programming and machining challenges.

  * Support improvements to machining methods, programme efficiency and production performance.

You'll ideally have:

  * A time-served production engineering or CNC machining background.

  * A sound understanding of machining methods, tooling and general production engineering.

  * Basic CAD modelling and drafting capability.

  * The ability to understand engineering drawings and translate requirements into effective machining programmes.

  * Experience with Vericut machine simulation and Fanuc controls would be advantageous but isn't essential.

  * Relevant engineering qualifications are preferred; however, candidates with significant practical industry experience will also be considered.
