Job Description
The market for jobs hard going at the moment. Well, good ones, at least. Everywhere you look it seems as though another business is closing, restructuring or struggling in some way so being in a stable job is understandably important.
If finding a role where you have that, but that’ll also challenge you to be the best version of yourself appeals, you might want to hear more about this one.
Starting with the work; as a Mechanical Design Engineer you’ll be using Inventor to design complex special purpose machinery. If inventor isn’t a software you are familiar with, not to worry. The skills you’ve gained elsewhere will allow us to make you an expert swiftly. Every project is 100% bespoke so whilst you’ll probably find some crossover with elements of other projects, no 2 projects will be the same.
I really want to stress that this isn’t your 3-metre straight line conveyor system that goes into a food site. We’re talking gas combustion ovens, coolers, hot plates, dispensers and “pick and place” systems covering multiple fully automated product lines.
Culturally; this is a team with a family feel that works closely together with the customers’ maintenance team in mind. Sales actively encourage engineering involvement so there’s no risk of over promising. That means you’ll have a chance to meet customer and be truly involved from concept all the way through to commissioning. You’ll probably want to stay close to the electrical and software teams too, to make sure everything will run smoothly for the customer on delivery.
The business is firmly on the acquisition trail. That means they’re actively pursuing additions to their existing skillset either with completely new technology in a similar technical area or its desire to add in more advanced robotics capability.
Honesty is key, and right now it’s unlikely you’ll be stepping into a leadership role anytime soon. However, with the open office space and an emphasis on internal collaboration you will likely be dipping into many different areas, allowing you to expand your knowledge and experience. As things continue to grow and expand there’s no saying you won’t take the lead on some pretty innovative and interesting projects that could see your opportunities to climb the ladder increase.
Salary wise; you’ll probably start on a base of around £40k - £45k, though I’d imagine that’ll grow as your time and influence on the team does. It’s a company with really high staff retention, so if you’re looking for a long term role, this is the place for you.
The offices are in Nelson. Just off the motorway and in a modernised new industrial unit. You’ll be based there during the working week (site visits aside) – some people will see that as a dealbreaker, which is fair enough. If you see it as a chance to collaborate with an experienced and growing engineering team on a massive growth trajectory, I really think we should speak.
