Job Description & How to Apply Below
We’re recruiting a Design Engineering Manager to join a highly successful and expanding engineering business in Glenrothes. This is a rare opportunity for a capable Design Engineering Manager to step into a well-run environment with strong growth momentum — not a firefighting situation, but a platform to lead, improve, and build.

Why join as Design Engineering Manager?

✔ Newly created leadership position with real influence
Senior Management Team exposure
✔ Strong order book and long-term contracts
✔ Structured handover and support from the previous manager
✔ Opportunity to shape and develop a high-performing design function

The company designs and manufactures complex engineered assemblies for long-term, high-value programmes. Continued growth has created the need for a confident mechanical engineering leader to take ownership of the design function and contribute at senior level.

The Opportunity

As Design Engineering Manager, you’ll lead the mechanical design team while driving best practice, capability development, and technical excellence. The successful Design Engineering Manager will act as a key link between design, manufacturing, and commercial teams to ensure projects move smoothly from concept through to production.

Key responsibilities include:

* Leading and developing the mechanical design engineering team

* Driving best practice in 3D CAD modelling and technical standards

* Overseeing complex assembly design from concept to manufacture

* Collaborating cross-functionally with manufacturing, quality, and commercial teams

* Contributing to strategic decisions as part of the Senior Management Team

* Building structure, succession, and long-term capability within design

What We’re Looking For

The ideal Design Engineering Manager brings strong technical credibility combined with leadership capability.

You’ll ideally have:

* A solid background in Mechanical Engineering

* Experience with 3D CAD / modelling tools

* Proven team leadership or supervisory experience

* The ability to mentor and develop engineers

* Experience designing complex engineered products or assemblies

* Commercial awareness and senior-level perspective

You may already be a Design Engineering Manager, or a senior/principal engineer ready to step into a leadership role.

If you’re a driven Design Engineering Manager looking for a role where you can influence strategy, lead a capable team, and support a growing engineering business — this is a standout opportunity.
