Join a precision engineering workshop where your craftsmanship creates components that genuinely matter.
Do you have manual turning experience working to low tolerances? Are you looking for a 4-day work week?
There's something special about making things that genuinely matter. If you take pride in your work, enjoy being part of a tight-knit workshop, and want to see the impact of your work every single day, this role could be a brilliant next step.
About the role
Moxie People are supporting a long-established precision engineering business as they welcome two new Manual Turners into their small, friendly team. With two retirements on the horizon, this is a chance to step into a stable, well-run workshop where quality comes first and processes have been refined over 20 years.
- You'll be producing high-accuracy components on manual lathes (Colchester and Hardinge)
- Working to tight tolerances, and machining a wide range of materials including aluminium, steels, plastics, and ceramics
- You'll read and interpret engineering drawings, set up your own jobs, and use mechanical and digital measuring tools to check your work
- You'll also play an active role in maintaining the smooth running of the workshop - keeping things clean, safe, and ready for the next job
What's on offer
- £36,000 salary
- Employee Ownership Trust eligibility after 12 months
- Flexible start/finish times (06:30/07:30 - 15:30/16:00)
- No Friday afternoons
- 4-day week model (32hrs - unless production requires otherwise)
- A stable, growing business with exceptional customer satisfaction (99.967%)
About you
- You'll thrive here if you're hands-on, steady under pressure, and enjoy being part of a small team where everyone looks out for each other
- You'll have recent experience using manual lathes, confidence working to tight tolerances
- If you've worked in a small engineering firm before, or you've come through an apprenticeship route, you'll feel right at home
