Job Description
If you take quiet pride in precision work - and find satisfaction in doing things properly the first time - this could be a role where your strengths are genuinely valued.
Our client is a specialist CNC machining company, producing high-precision components for industries where detail matters: aerospace, medical, motorsport, and scientific instrumentation. This isn't high-volume or rushed work. It's skilled, careful, and consistent - and they're looking for someone who works in the same way.
They're currently seeking a CNC Setter/Turner to join their established team on a permanent basis. You'll need solid experience in setting and operating CNC lathes, ideally with Fanuc controls, and confidence in troubleshooting issues as they arise. If you're someone who can quietly guide others and is open to stepping into a team lead role, there's scope for that too.
Your Role Will Involve:
Setting and operating CNC turning machines (sliding head and/or fixed head)
Interpreting detailed engineering drawings and specifications
Carrying out first-off and in-process inspections using precision instruments
Making necessary adjustments to maintain part quality
Ensuring machines run smoothly with minimal downtime
Keeping your workspace clean and organised in line with 5S principles
Completing job cards and quality documentation accurately
Supporting and mentoring less experienced team members
What We're Looking For:
Proven experience as a CNC Setter in a turning environment
Familiarity with Fanuc (or similar) control systems
Confident reading and working from technical drawings
Skilled in using micrometers, verniers, and other measuring tools
Methodical, steady approach to problem-solving
Strong attention to detail and a commitment to doing things properly
Desirable Experience:
Experience with Star or Citizen sliding head machines
Understanding of CNC programming or editing
Awareness of Lean Manufacturing or Continuous Improvement principles
What's on Offer:
£38,000 DOE
25 days holiday
Life insurance (4x annual salary)
Permanent position in a supportive, skilled team
