Looking to step into a more hands‑off supervisory role while still staying close to the machining process?
We are recruiting on behalf of a well‑established UK engineering manufacturer supplying bespoke equipment into highly regulated industries.
This is an opportunity to lead a small, busy machine shop, taking responsibility for planning workloads, supporting another machinist, and ensuring quality components are delivered on time.
You will remain technically involved, programming and machining complex one‑off and low‑volume precision components, but with greater ownership of the day‑to‑day running of the shop.
Responsibilities
- Lead a small, busy machine shop.
- Plan workloads and support other machinists.
- Ensure quality components are delivered on time.
- Program and machine complex one‑off and low‑volume precision components.
- Own day‑to‑day running of the shop.
Qualifications
- 5+ years’ CNC Milling & Turning experience.
- Strong CNC programming skills.
- Previous Team Leader or supervisory experience (or ready to step up).
- Experience machining stainless steel and working to tight tolerances.
- Ability to manufacture one‑off and prototype components.
- Confident reading engineering drawings.
- Experience with Hurco lathes and milling machines is advantageous but not essential.
If you are an experienced CNC Miller/Turner looking for a role with more responsibility and less time stood behind the machine all day, I would be keen to speak with you.
