Full job description

Chemical Manufacturing Engineer

Hands-on manufacturing. Real responsibility. Accelerated learning.

Why this role exists

Promethean is scaling a new class of materials — metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) — that can fundamentally change how the world captures carbon and uses energy.

That means real manufacturing challenges, not theoretical ones:

Pilot plants and early-stage production facilities
Safety-critical chemical processes
New equipment, new methods, and systems being built from the ground up

We’re looking for a Manufacturing Engineer who wants to be close to real operations and develop quickly by working on problems that genuinely matter.

Who this role is best suited to

This role is intended for an early-career engineer who has already had some exposure to real engineering environments and is now looking to build deeper capability in manufacturing.

You’re likely to be a strong fit if you:

Have spent time in manufacturing, process, pilot plant, laboratory, or industrial settings (for example through placements, internships, a year in industry, or an early graduate role)
Want to move closer to real equipment, processes, and production, rather than staying purely theoretical
Learn best by doing and reflecting, especially in practical, hands-on environments
Are looking for a role that will stretch you beyond a highly structured graduate programme

This role assumes some familiarity with how real engineering environments work and is designed for candidates ready to build on that foundation.

What you’ll actually be doing

You’ll work across Promethean’s pilot-scale manufacturing facilities, supporting the transition from R&D into scalable operations. Over time, you’ll take ownership of defined systems and improvements.

Your work will include:

Operating and improving pilot-scale manufacturing processes
Applying and learning process safety, SOPs, and risk assessments
Supporting the design, installation, and commissioning of equipment
Investigating plant issues and contributing to practical solutions
Helping build the manufacturing systems needed for scale-up
This is a site-based, hands-on engineering role. It is not desk-only and not research-only.

What we’re looking for

We’re less concerned with ticking boxes and more interested in relevant experience, curiosity, and learning mindset.

You’ll likely have:

A degree in chemical engineering (or similar)
2 years + experience in industrial, manufacturing, or operational environments
Comfort working around real equipment and safety-critical processes

You just have full, unrestricted right to work in the UK.

Why this is a strong early-career move

Broad exposure across operations, safety, equipment, and continuous improvement
First-hand experience of scaling new technology
Faster development than a narrow graduate scheme
Support and mentoring alongside meaningful responsibility
After a year, success looks like this:
You’re independently owning parts of the manufacturing operation and contributing to safer, more reliable production — while building skills that clearly differentiate you as a manufacturing engineer.

About Promethean

We’re a fast-moving scale-up focused on decarbonisation, but we hire based on the work and the learning opportunity, not slogans.

If you’re motivated by doing meaningful engineering in the real world, you’ll feel at home here.

Interested?

Apply if this role aligns with what you want to learn and do next, and if you’re keen to build on the experience you already have in practical engineering environments.

Benefits

As a growing small-scale-up, we think it is critical to have a competitive ‘total compensation’ philosophy allowing us to attract and retain the very best talent for our team. Our current benefits package includes:

Competitive salaries
Annual performance-based bonus
Flexible approach to working
Company pension plan
Private medical insurance
Potential for stock options
Group life insurance

Equal Opportunities

As part of our dedication to the diversity of our workforce, Promethean is committed to equal opportunities in employment. We encourage every employee to bring their whole self to work every day, not only to deliver more value, but also to have a more fulfilling career.

Promethean provides equal employment opportunities to all employees and applicants for employment without regard to race, colour, religion, gender, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, age, disability, or marital status. Promethean complies with applicable legislation governing non-discrimination in employment. Promethean expressly prohibits any form of employee harassment. Improper interference with the ability of Promethean employees to perform their expected job duties is not tolerated.

Our commitment

We do not use AI to review your application. We are a small business, and a member of our careers team reads every CV. We do not require a cover letter, and you don't need to apply to multiple jobs as we will consider your application against all our vacancies. We endeavour to reply to you within 5 working days.
