• Work closely with Production, Purchasing, and Development teams to ensure designs are practical and commercially viable.

• Produce accurate drawings and Bills of Materials to support costing and manufacture.

Requirements

• Confident producing accurate 2D manufacturing drawings using GD&T best practice.

• Strong 3D CAD capability (Solid Edge ideal, SolidWorks also considered).

• Practical understanding of how design decisions impact cost, quality, and production efficiency.

• Experience designing and developing sheet metal components and assemblies.

• Proven track record of supporting products from prototype through to full manufacture.

• Mechanical Engineering qualification or equivalent hands-on industry experience.

What We Offer

• Salary up to £40,000 per annum depending on experience.

• Monday-Friday working hours, 8:30am-5pm.

• Permanent position within an established engineering business.

• Opportunity to contribute to real-world, production-focused design projects.
