About Visual Architects

Visual Architects is an award-winning creative production company specialising in immersive environments, scenic fabrication, festival builds, experiential activations, commercial interiors, hospitality projects, and large-scale installations across the UK and Europe.

We design, manufacture, and install visually impactful projects for brands, agencies, festivals, venues, attractions, and immersive experiences. With significant investment in advanced manufacturing technology, we are expanding our digital fabrication capabilities and are looking for an experienced Large Format 3D Print & Manufacturing Technician to join the team.

Our workshop includes:

Kings 3D Large Format Printers
7 Axis Robotic Manufacturing Systems
CNC Machinery
Hotwire Cutting Systems
Traditional Scenic Fabrication Facilities

The Role

We are looking for a practical, technically minded individual to become the lead operator of our large format 3D printing department.

You will take ownership of our Kings 3D printers, managing everything from file preparation and print scheduling through to machine operation, maintenance, quality control, and production planning.

Working closely with designers, project managers, technical designers, and workshop teams, you will help transform creative concepts into large-scale physical objects used in festivals, immersive experiences, attractions, commercial interiors, exhibitions, and scenic installations.

Whilst your primary responsibility will be the operation and development of our large-format 3D printing capability, there will also be opportunities to develop skills across our wider manufacturing department, including robotic fabrication, CNC machining, and digital production technologies.

This role would suit someone who enjoys solving technical challenges, working with cutting-edge manufacturing technology, and producing unique one-off projects rather than repetitive production work.

Operate and monitor large-scale print jobs
Troubleshoot print failures and machine issues
Manage machine maintenance and servicing schedules

Estimate print times and machine requirements
Assist with project quotations and manufacturing costings
Identify opportunities to improve efficiency and profitability

Finishing & Fabrication

Support the finishing and assembly of printed components
Work alongside scenic fabrication teams to integrate printed elements into larger builds
Assist with prototyping and testing new manufacturing techniques

Manufacturing Development

Learn and support operation of robotic manufacturing equipment
Gain experience with CNC machinery and hotwire cutting systems
Contribute to the development of new workflows and production methods
Stay up to date with advances in additive manufacturing and digital fabrication

Essential Skills & Experience

Experience operating 3D printers in a professional environment
Strong understanding of additive manufacturing processes
Good technical and mechanical aptitude
Experience preparing production files
Ability to troubleshoot machine and print issues
Strong organisational and planning skills
Good attention to detail
Ability to manage multiple projects and deadlines
Practical hands-on approach to problem solving

Desirable Skills & Experience

Experience operating Kings 3D printers
Experience with large format or industrial 3D printing systems
Experience with pellet extrusion printing systems
Experience with BigRep, Massivit, CEAD, Modix, WASP, Caracol, Thermwood, or similar technologies
Experience within scenic construction, events, exhibitions, architecture, prop making, film, TV, or creative production
Experience with CNC machinery or robotic manufacturing
Experience using Rhino, Fusion 360, SolidWorks, Blender, or similar software
Experience costing manufacturing projects

What You'll Be Working On

Festival installations
Immersive experiences
Theme park and attraction projects
Large-scale props and sculptures
Exhibition and event builds
Commercial interiors
Bespoke architectural features
Creative fabrication projects across the UK and Europe

What Success Looks Like

Within your first six months:

Full ownership of the Kings 3D printing operation
Reliable machine scheduling and production planning
Accurate manufacturing cost estimates
Consistent high-quality output
Improved machine utilisation and efficiency
Strong collaboration with design and production teams

As the department grows, there will be opportunities to take on additional responsibility within our wider digital fabrication and advanced manufacturing operations. Please share your cv to [email protected]
