Materials & Joining Specialist – Product & Industrialisation

Location: UK (flexible)

An opportunity has arisen to join a Technology & Innovation team developing next-generation industrialised construction products. The focus of this role is defining material and joining strategies that enable scalable, efficient and high-quality manufacturing.

This role suits individuals who understand how product design decisions directly impact manufacturability, cost and production performance.

Who would this role suit?

Professionals from automotive, aerospace, rail, defence, heavy manufacturing, structural fabrication or energy sectors, as well as construction specialists with strong manufacturing or DfMA exposure and a clear interest in industrialisation.

About the team

The team is focused on transforming construction through manufacturing-led thinking, developing product platforms and production systems that enable repeatable, factory-based delivery.

What does a Materials & Joining Specialist do?

You will define and optimise material selections and joining strategies for product families, ensuring designs are structurally robust, cost-effective and suitable for automated or high-volume manufacturing.

Working closely with product and manufacturing teams, you will ensure that material choices, joint types and connection methods are aligned with real production environments and supply chains.

What else to expect:

Define material strategies including grades, profiles, coatings and connection methods
Optimise designs for structural performance, manufacturability, cost and durability
Ensure compatibility with automated production, including robotic welding and high-throughput environments
Apply knowledge of joining technologies (e.g. welding, fastening, hybrid methods) to inform product design decisions
Support validation, testing and certification approaches to ensure compliance and production robustness
Challenge design decisions that negatively impact quality, efficiency or scalability

Essential experience:

Background in relevant sectors such as automotive, aerospace, heavy manufacturing or construction with manufacturing exposure
Experience defining materials, connections or joining strategies for engineered products
Understanding of manufacturing processes and production constraints
Experience working with manufacturing, welding or production teams
Strong problem-solving skills with a focus on practical application

Desirable experience:

Experience in high-volume or repeatable product environments
Exposure to automated or robotic joining processes
Knowledge of testing, validation or certification of joined systems
Experience in fast-paced or first-of-a-kind environments

Personal attributes:

Systems thinker with an understanding of design trade-offs
Awareness of how materials and joining impact cost, throughput and quality
Comfortable working in evolving or ambiguous environments
Practical, curious and delivery-focused
