Job Description
Design Engineer (CAD Specialist) – Bring Architectural Visions to Life
Location: Runcorn (WA7)
Salary: £37,500 - £44,000 per year
Position Type: Permanent, Full-time
Picture This:
You’re the person who turns architectural ideas into precise, buildable designs. Every day, you’re working on high-profile UK projects—shopfronts, structural glazing, curtain walling—making sure every detail is perfect before it hits the production line or the construction site.
My client, a trusted and expanding company in the aluminium glazing sector, is looking for an experienced CAD/Logikal Technician to join their technical design team. This isn’t just about drawing—it’s about collaborating with fabricators, project managers, and installers to bring projects to life, solving technical challenges, and ensuring everything meets British and European standards.
What You’ll Be Doing:
You’ll be at the heart of the design process, creating accurate, high-quality drawings that make projects run smoothly. One day you’re producing AutoCAD drawings for aluminium windows and doors, the next you’re generating fabrication drawings and material schedules using Logikal software.
Here’s what your role will involve:
* Producing precise AutoCAD drawings for a range of glazing systems (SMART, SAS, Senior Aluminium).
* Generating fabrication drawings and material schedules—ensuring everything is ready for manufacturing and installation.
* Creating technical documentation that guides the team from design to completion.
* Working closely with fabricators, project managers, and installers to resolve any design or technical queries.
* Attending design and coordination meetings—your input will be key to keeping projects on track.
* Making sure all drawings comply with supplier manuals, product limitations, and industry standards.
* Managing projects from survey and drawing packs right through to installation, keeping everyone updated on progress.
Is This You?
You’ve got at least 5 years’ experience in the aluminium glazing industry, and you’re proficient in AutoCAD and Logikal software. You know your way around Senior Aluminium and Smart Aluminium systems, and you’re the kind of person who:
* Loves precision—you take pride in creating drawings that are accurate down to the last millimetre.
* Enjoys problem-solving—whether it’s resolving a technical query or finding a smarter way to design something.
* Works well in a team—you’re just as comfortable collaborating with colleagues as you are working independently.
* Stays organised—you can manage multiple projects and deadlines without breaking a sweat.
* Lives within a 60-minute commute of Runcorn (WA7)—this one’s non-negotiable!
Why You’ll Love It:
This is a chance to work on exciting, high-profile projects across the UK, with a company that’s growing and investing in its team. You’ll get:
* A competitive salary and long-term job stability.
* Genuine career development opportunities—this is a company where you can grow.
* A supportive, collaborative team environment—no micromanaging, just a shared passion for quality.
* The chance to see your designs come to life in real-world projects.
