Process Engineer

Are you a Process Engineer who enjoys challenging the status quo and driving real change on the shop floor?

Connected Engineering is working with a superb manufacturing business that’s investing heavily in automation, capital projects, and continuous improvement, and they’re looking for someone to play a key role in that journey.

This isn’t a “keep things ticking” role. It’s an opportunity to get stuck into meaningful projects, influence how things are done, and develop quickly within a growing engineering team.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Driving process improvements across a busy manufacturing site
• Supporting capital projects (equipment upgrades, automation, new tech)
• Analysing performance using OEE and production data
• Mapping and improving processes (value stream mapping, waste reduction)
• Working closely with engineering, production, and quality teams
• Getting involved in automation, CNC, robotics and modern manufacturing tech
• Solving real problems on the shop floor and implementing practical solutions

What We’re Looking For

• Experience in a manufacturing environment (regulated preferred)
• Exposure to continuous improvement (Lean / Six Sigma)
• Strong analytical mindset, someone who asks “why?”
• Interest in automation, process optimisation, and engineering improvement
• Background in precision engineering or component manufacturing (ideal, not essential)

Why This Role?

• Be part of a team that genuinely values ideas and initiative
• Work on real capital investment projects, not just small tweaks
• Join a business where attitude and potential matter more than years of experience
• Clear opportunity to develop into a more senior engineering role

Details

• £45k to £50k (DOE)
• Bonus
• 26 days +BH
• Health Care Plan
• Permanent, Monday to Friday (37.5 hours)
