Build, Assemble and Engineer with Precision Are you a hands on Mechanical Technician, Machinist or Mechanical Engineer who takes pride in producing exceptional work?

We're looking for a skilled engineer to join a specialist engineering team working on the manufacture, assembly and development of high precision mechanical systems. This is an opportunity to work on technically challenging projects where quality, craftsmanship and attention to detail truly matter.

If you enjoy turning engineering drawings into finished components, solving mechanical challenges and seeing the results of your work come together in complex assemblies, this could be the perfect next step in your career.

• Work on specialist, technically interesting engineering projects
• Be part of a highly skilled and collaborative engineering team
• Take ownership of projects from drawing through to final assembly
• Develop your skills through ongoing training and qualifications
• Enjoy working in a well equipped workshop environment
• Receive a competitive salary of £40,000 plus travel expenses
• Access opportunities for long term career growth and development

As a Mechanical Technician, you'll play a key role in the manufacture and assembly of precision engineered components and systems.

• Manufacturing components using manual milling machines and lathes
• Producing accurate, high quality work in line with engineering drawings and specifications
• Assembling and fitting precision components and sub assemblies
• Inspecting, measuring and checking components throughout the manufacturing and assembly process
• Carrying out adjustments, modifications and repairs where required
• Identifying and resolving mechanical issues through effective fault finding
• Maintaining high standards of workshop organisation, equipment care and safe working practices
• Working collaboratively with colleagues across the wider engineering function

We're keen to speak with practical, hands on engineers who enjoy working with precision mechanical systems and take pride in producing work to the highest standard.

• Proven experience operating manual mills and lathes
