We are looking for Mechanical Design Engineers (there are several positions available as we are in a growth phase) to work as part of a multi-disciplined team of 30 engineers designing new products within the cash security industry.
Your role will involve designing and developing products from concept through to production. You will be able to provide novel, practical and innovative solutions to mechanical design problems, before prototyping, testing and bringing your solution through to production.
You must have an eye for detail, an inquisitive mind, be initiative-taking and be self-motivated. The ability to critique one’s own design will be immensely beneficial to achieve the best result.

Your role will include the research of new materials, technologies and processes to solve challenging design problems.
The following tasks and activities form the primary duties of the role:
- Creating concept designs from customer requirements.
- Design products where components use manufacturing techniques, such as:
