You'll be the Production Engineer who owns how automation and process improvement take shape on the shop floor. Every process you review is a genuine opportunity to apply proper rigour, not just tick a box. This is a role where your technical judgement is trusted, and where getting it right matters more than getting it fast.

As a Production Engineer, you will benefit from:

• 25 days holiday + bank holidays
• Company bonus scheme
• Health insurance following probation
• Pension scheme

As a Production Engineer, your responsibilities will include:

• Identify, design and implement automation solutions across the production line
• Lead automation and process improvement projects from concept through to implementation
• Review existing manufacturing processes to identify opportunities for standardisation and waste reduction
• Support new product introduction, ensuring processes are optimised ahead of full scale production
• Investigate and resolve production issues, applying root cause analysis techniques
• Work with production, quality and engineering teams to embed a continuous improvement culture

As a Production Engineer, your experience will include:

• Proven, hands-on experience of automation within a manufacturing environment
• A relevant engineering degree, with a solid grounding in process improvement
• Familiarity with Lean, Six Sigma or Kaizen methodologies
• Experience within electronics manufacturing is desirable but not essential
• Confidence working across the shop floor and influencing how processes are run
• A proactive, independent approach to problem solving
