Job Description

R&D Engineer – Mechanical or Electrical Bias

📍 Cheshire

💼 Permanent | Global engineering group | New product introduction

I’m supporting a well-established engineering manufacturer (part of a larger international technology group) as they expand their R&D team.

They are hiring two R&D Engineers — one mechanically biased and one electrically biased — to support a major technology transfer programme from mainland Europe into the UK, alongside ongoing product development.

This role sits between design and manufacturing, focused on turning engineering concepts into reliable, production-ready machinery.

What you’ll be involved in

  * Supporting new product introduction & technology transfer

  * Developing and improving machinery for manufacture

  * Testing, validation and problem solving

  * Working closely with design, production and engineering teams

What they’re looking for

  * Engineering degree or equivalent experience

  * Background in machinery, automation or equipment development

  * A strong practical / process engineering mindset

  * Comfortable solving real-world engineering problems (not purely desk-based)

Mechanical bias: mechanisms, materials handling, assemblies, reliability

Electrical bias: controls hardware, sensors, drives, integration

Why consider it

  * Genuine development engineering (not maintenance/support)

  * Investment-backed growth and new technology coming into the UK

  * Opportunity to influence future product platforms

  * Stable business within a global group

If you enjoy making machines work in the real world — not just on drawings — this is a good one to explore.
