Job Description

Design Engineer

Are you a creative problem-solver with a passion for turning ideas into high-quality, real-world products? We're looking for a Design Engineer to join our forward-thinking engineering team within a well-established UK manufacturer. In this hands-on role, you’ll take products from concept through to production while helping shape continuous improvements across our design and manufacturing processes.

The Job

As a key member of the design team, you will:

Interpret design briefs and develop innovative, practical solutions.
	
Create detailed 3D models using PTC Creo.
	
Perform FEA analyses on parts and assemblies with Creo Simulate.
	
Produce clear, accurate manufacturing drawings for parts made using a variety of production processes.
	
Manage full product lifecycles—from initial concept to production release.
	
Liaise with suppliers to source components and support efficient procurement.
	
Work closely with in-house manufacturing teams to enhance efficiency through intelligent design.
	
Create and maintain Bills of Materials using Syspro.
	
Keep design technical files organised and up to date.
	
Ensure designs comply with relevant trailer legislation (VCA).
	
Support testing of products, prototypes and new concepts.
	
Program CNC laser and router machines.
	
Assist our service team with practical, design-led solutions for on-site issues.

The Person       

Degree or HNC in Mechanical Engineering or a related discipline.
	
Strong 3D CAD skills — ideally PTC Creo, but SolidWorks, Inventor, or similar experience will also be considered.
	
Previous experience in a design engineering role is beneficial, though not essential if you bring the right attitude and technical foundations.

The Package

You’ll be part of a supportive engineering environment where innovation is encouraged, quality is valued, and your work makes a visible impact. This is an excellent opportunity for someone looking to broaden their skill set, work on varied and meaningful projects, and grow within a stable UK manufacturer.

Circa £30,000 per annum salary DOE + Excellent Benefits Package
