Salary dependent on experience
Immersive Optics Ltd is a small but growing manufacturing company producing specialist products for the sports and outdoors market. We are setting up a modern CNC workshop and are looking for a practical, hands-on individual to join our team.
You don’t need to come with CNC experience as we will provide full training and guidance. What matters most is an interest in how things are made, a willingness to learn, and a steady, careful approach to practical work.
Main Tasks but not limited to:
Operating CNC machinery - learning to use milling machines and lathes under supervision, understanding machine set-up, and developing confidence with measuring tools and materials.
Product preparation and finishing - assisting with deburring, polishing, and surface finishing to ensue high-quality presentation and function.
Quality control and testing - checking parts for accuracy, carrying out simple functional tests, and maintaining records of completed work.
Tooling and fixture support - helping to make, maintain, and adapt tools and jigs used in production.
Workshop maintenance - contributing to the day-to-day running of the workshop, keeping tools organised, and ensuring the workspace remains safe and tidy.
Team collaboration - working closely with engineers and designers to support new product development and small-scale production runs.
The Ideal Candidate
Has a genuine interest in mechanical and technical work and enjoys understanding how things fit together.
Is careful, patient, and precise and able to work accurately and take pride in producing consistent results.
Demonstrates a willingness to learn and take on feedback to improve both speed and skill.
Shows practical problem-solving ability, using common sense when approaching new tasks.
Is reliable and organised, with a focus on safety and attention to detail.
Communicates clearly and works well in a small team where everyone contributes to shared goals.
Previous workshop or hands-on experience (professional or personal) is welcome but not essential.
Why join us?
A supportive, well-organised working environment with fair pay, training, and opportunities to develop valuable technical skills. You’ll work on a wide variety of products from simple precision components to complex systems combining mechanics, optics, and electronics.
This is a practical, workshop-based role suited to someone who enjoys making things, learning by doing, and being part of a small team that values quality and craftsmanship.
