Grinding Technician

Can your skills shape high-precision components with accuracy?

Bowers Group are looking for a Grinding Technician to join our production team within the Grinding department at our Bradford site. This role is ideal for a semi-skilled operator who is looking to improve their skills with some in-house training.

As a Grinding Technician, you’ll operate manual surface grinding machines and semi-automatic grinding machines to manufacture components to exacting specifications. You’ll be responsible for checking size and accuracy throughout the manufacturing process, ensuring components meet quality requirements both during production and on completion. Alongside this, you’ll complete all required paperwork and follow shop floor SOPs to support traceability and consistency.

You’ll work closely with supervisors and colleagues to deliver work efficiently and safely, carrying out minor machine maintenance, maintaining housekeeping standards and ensuring all safety devices and PPE requirements are adhered to at all times. While much of the role involves working independently, you’ll also be a key part of the wider production team, supporting the smooth running of the shop floor as required.

What about you? Ideally, you will have some engineering background with some machining experience preferably in grinding (internal, surface, cylindrical centreless, profiling). But not essential as training will be given to the right candidates who have some machining/engineering background.
