Ready to lead a CNC team and have a real say in how a machine shop runs?
At Beagle Aircraft, we manufacture precision components and assemblies for aerospace programmes. We’re looking for a CNC Machine Shop Supervisor to lead the day-to-day operation of our Christchurch machine shop.
This role would suit an experienced Machine Shop Supervisor or a CNC Team Leader ready for a broader leadership role. You’ll stay close to the technical work while helping your team deliver safely, on time and to the quality standards our customers expect.
What you’ll get
- 25 days annual leave plus Bank Holidays
- Early Finish Friday's
- Company pension
- Employee Assistance Programme (EAP)
- Holiday Purchase Scheme
- Long service awards
- Free onsite parking
What you’ll do
- Set daily priorities and support the CNC machinists in your team.
- Coordinate workload, machine capacity and production progress.
- Help resolve machining issues with Engineering, Quality and Planning.
- Coach team members and maintain high standards of safety, quality and housekeeping.
- Spot practical ways to improve output, reduce rework and make better use of equipment.
What you’ll bring
- Strong hands-on CNC machining experience, with the ability to read engineering drawings and solve shop-floor problems.
- Experience supervising, leading or coordinating other machinists.
- The confidence to organise work, communicate priorities and support your team when plans change.
- Experience with multi-axis machining or aerospace manufacturing would be useful, but you don’t need to have worked in aerospace to apply. We’re interested in people who know precision machining and can lead a team well.
If you’re a CNC Team Leader or Machine Shop Supervisor who wants to take ownership of a key manufacturing area, we’d like to hear from you.
