£30,000 – £35,000 per annum

Benefits:

Company & Role Overview
Operating as a tight-knit, collaborative squad of specialist engineers, this business delivers high-spec, custom engineering solutions to prestigious, highly regulated sectors like pharmaceuticals and life sciences. Far from a rigid, corporate desk job, you will work directly alongside senior engineers who are committed to fast-tracking your technical development, giving you exposure that would take years to get in a larger firm.
Key Responsibilities
- Use AutoCAD and Autodesk Inventor to produce high-quality GA, fabrication, and component drawings for bespoke process machinery.
- Move from the screen to the shop floor to assist with hands-on mechanical fitting, quality control, operations, and equipment assembly.
- Attend client sites to conduct precise physical engineering surveys, take accurate measurements, and map out service routes.
- Play an active, practical role on-site during the physical installation, commissioning, and decommissioning of equipment.
- Maintain accurate engineering records, technical drawing revisions, and comprehensive compliance documentation.
What We Are Looking For
- A qualification in Mechanical Engineering (Degree, HNC/HND, or Apprenticeship) paired with a couple of years of graduate or practical, hands-on engineering experience.
- Proficiency in AutoCAD or Autodesk Inventor, backed by a strong mechanical aptitude and a solid understanding of fabrication processes.
- A naturally curious, proactive team player who is genuinely excited to get their hands dirty with assembly and installation, rather than just sitting behind a desk.
