  • Degree or HNC/HND in Mechanical Engineering (or similar)

  • Solid experience designing machined components and assemblies

  • Proficient with CAD (SolidWorks, Inventor, Creo or similar)

  • Strong understanding of materials, tolerancing and manufacturing processes (CNC, turning, milling)

  • Hands-on approach with an eye for detail and problem-solving

  • Confident communicator who thrives in a collaborative environment

What’s on Offer

  • Salary up to £50,000 depending on experience

  • Stable, long-established manufacturer with global reach
