The Business
This is a well-established engineering business supplying cutting edge equipment to customers globally.
They’re not standing still either.
* Recently invested heavily into new machinery.
* Multiple ongoing projects in progress to improve processes and efficiencies.
* Ongoing focus on improving how parts are manufactured, not just maintaining output.
You’ll be joining a business that is actively upgrading its capability and expects its engineers to play a key role in that journey.
The Role
This is a hands-on Production Engineering role supporting machining operations.
It’s not a “sit behind a desk” position.

You’ll be part of a team of experienced engineers, reporting directly to the Engineering Manager.
What You’ll Be Doing
* Create and develop CNC programs for lathes and machining centres.
* Work from SolidWorks models to support machining operations.
* Define and improve manufacturing processes.
* Produce routings, BOMs, and process documentation
* Support the shop floor with technical problem solving.
* Improve cycle times, methods, and process reliability.
* Work closely with engineering, purchasing, and operations teams.
What They’re Looking For
They are very clear on this:
They want a strong engineer first. Systems can be taught.
* Solid background in production/manufacturing engineering
* Proven experience with CNC machining (lathes and machining centres)
* Experience working with 3D CAD (SolidWorks preferred)
* Understanding of 4 and 5-axis machining
* Ability to read and interpret engineering drawings
* Experience creating routings and BOMs
* Apprenticeship + HNC/HND (or equivalent experience)
* Around 5+ years in a similar role
The Team & Environment
* High calibre of capability in the team.
* Straightforward, down-to-earth culture.
This isn’t a place where people coast, it’s somewhere where you can continue to learn and develop throughout your career.
