Make an Impact Where Precision Truly Matters

If you’re an engineer who thrives on complex machining challenges, where your work directly supports critical UK marine, power generation, and industrial engineering programmes, this role puts you right at the heart of it. At Manthorpe Engineering, you’ll take full ownership of technically demanding projects—shaping manufacturing processes, solving high‑integrity engineering problems, and seeing your decisions influence quality, performance, and delivery. This is a place where expertise is valued, precision is everything, and your engineering judgement genuinely moves the needle.

Key Responsibilities

Technical Leadership & Project Ownership

Act as the go‑to technical authority for your projects, owning all engineering and quality‑related decisions.
Drive pre‑contract and internal reviews to ensure requirements are fully understood and achievable.
Turn customer specifications and regulatory standards into clear, robust manufacturing methods and work instructions.
Support and mentor production and quality teams, helping them deliver to the highest standards.

Process Engineering & Machining Development

Define, validate, and optimise manufacturing processes for complex, high‑precision machined components.
Develop CNC machining strategies, tooling concepts, and fixturing solutions that deliver repeatability and efficiency.
Produce routings, stage drawings, and operation sheets that set production up for success.
Specify materials, subcontract processes (heat treatment, NDT, coatings), and inspection requirements.
Lead continuous improvement initiatives focused on cycle time, waste reduction, and cost optimisation—without compromising quality.

Quality, Compliance & Documentation

Ensure all activities meet ISO 9001, AS9100, and other relevant regulatory frameworks.
Support root cause investigations and drive effective corrective and preventive actions.
Build and maintain complete technical documentation packs, ensuring full traceability and audit readiness.
Collaborate with Document Control and Quality teams to maintain accurate, compliant project records.

Qualities, Experience & Expertise

HNC or higher in Mechanical, Manufacturing, or Production Engineering (or equivalent).
Strong background in precision machining within marine, aerospace, nuclear, or similarly regulated sectors.
Proven ability to define methods of manufacture for complex components and assemblies.
Solid understanding of CNC machining, tooling, materials, GD&T, and process optimisation.
Experience with CAD/CAM software such as Siemens NX (highly desirable), Mastercam, or Fusion 360.
Confident communicator with strong problem‑solving skills and the ability to influence stakeholders.
Proficient with Microsoft Office and technical documentation.
Self‑driven, detail‑focused, and comfortable working independently.
Eligible for BPSS security clearance (mandatory)

Why Join Manthorpe Engineering?

Work on high‑integrity, technically challenging projects that genuinely matter.
Take real ownership of your work and see the impact of your decisions.
Join a skilled, supportive engineering team where your expertise is recognised.
Enjoy long‑term stability and career growth within a respected precision engineering business.
