Graduate Mechanical Engineer

• Hands-on role with real learning opportunities from day one
• Exposure to design, quotations, projects and product development
• Learn directly from experienced engineers in a growing business
• Excellent opportunity to build broad engineering and commercial experience

Are you looking for a graduate engineering role that will give you more than just CAD work? This is an opportunity to join a successful engineering business where you'll gain experience across multiple aspects of engineering, from design and product development through to quotations, projects and customer applications. You'll work closely with experienced engineers who will support your development, giving you the opportunity to build practical skills and industry knowledge that will accelerate your career.

Unlike larger graduate schemes where you can become pigeonholed into one area, this role offers genuine variety. You'll see how engineering projects move from initial enquiry through to manufacture and delivery, developing both your technical and commercial understanding along the way.
This is an opportunity to develop technical, commercial and project skills, build strong industry experience and establish the foundations for a successful long-term engineering career.

The Role: 
This is a varied role that will give you exposure to multiple areas of the business. Responsibilities will include:

• Producing engineering drawings and 3D models 
• Supporting product design and development activities
• Assisting with quotations and estimating projects
• Working with customers and internal teams to understand technical requirements
• Supporting engineering projects from concept through to manufacture
• Helping identify opportunities for product and process improvements
• Working across different projects and potentially supporting multiple businesses within the wider group

As your experience grows, you'll be given increasing responsibility and the opportunity to shape your own career path.

The Candidate: 
We're looking for someone who is enthusiastic, curious and keen to build a successful engineering career. The ideal candidate will have:

• A degree in Mechanical Engineering or a related engineering discipline
• Experience using CAD software, ideally SolidWorks
• Strong problem-solving skills and a practical approach
• Excellent communication skills
• A willingness to learn and get involved in a wide variety of activities
• A proactive attitude and desire to take ownership of tasks
