  * Strong CNC programming capability (multi-axis milling/turning)
  * Experience with Mazak Integrex machines (highly desirable)
  * Solid understanding of GD&T and tight tolerance machining
  * Ability to work with a wide range of materials and treatments
  * Experience with CAD/CAM systems (Mastercam advantageous)
  * Knowledge of ERP systems (IFS preferred)
  * Confident working independently and within a team
  * Passion for engineering excellence and continuous improvement
Qualifications
  * Engineering qualification (City & Guilds / NVQ or equivalent)
  * Apprentice-trained (desirable)
  * Full UK driving licence
  * Eligibility to work in the UK
What’s in It for You?
  * Competitive salary + profit share scheme
  * Excellent pension & life assurance
  * 34 days holiday (incl. bank holidays)
  * Health cash plan & wellbeing support
  * Cycle to Work scheme
  * Employee discounts & assistance programme
