Draughtsperson | Fife | Permanent | £35,000 to £42,000
This drawing office has done things the same way for a long time. They want someone to change that.
My client designs and builds complex, made to order industrial equipment for customers all over the world. New builds and repairs, each one engineered to the customer's own specification. The order book is healthy and the engineering team is busy.
They're now looking for a SolidWorks Draughtsperson to join them in Fife on a permanent basis. And this is where it gets interesting.
You won't just be producing drawings. You'll be helping bring the drawing office into the modern era. That means building smarter SolidWorks models with global variables and configurations, so new designs need minimal input to generate. It means developing the PDM system that sits alongside SolidWorks. And it means bringing fresh thinking on design for manufacture and current standards.
If you've ever looked at a process and thought “there's a better way of doing this”, here's your chance to prove it.
What you'll be doing:
Producing 3D models, outline drawings and component detail drawings
Creating electrical wiring diagrams and panel layout drawings
Drawing mounting plates, drill plans and assemblies
Producing bills of materials and full documentation packs for manufacture, service and repair
Automating designs using SolidWorks global variables and configurations
Developing and improving the PDM system
Updating departmental drawing standards and procedures
Retrieving legacy drawings in response to customer requests
You'll work closely with the design engineers and support new product development too.
What you'll need:
Strong SolidWorks skills, particularly global variables, configurations and PDM
Good problem solving ability and the initiative to run with ideas
Solid IT skills
An open mind, with no fixed ideas about how things should be done
Confidence, character and a willingness to learn
Experience level isn't a deciding factor. Whether you're early in your career or have years behind you, you'll be considered on exactly the same footing. What matters is how good you are with SolidWorks and what you'd bring. Personality matters here as much as CAD.
What's in it for you:
37 hour week with flexible hours
33 days holiday including
