Job Title: Production Engineer
Salary: Circa £45,000
Location: Heywood, Greater Manchester (on-site)
Hours: 40 hours per week – Early Friday finish.
The Business
This is a well-established engineering business supplying cutting edge equipment to customers globally.
- Recently invested heavily into new machinery.
- Multiple ongoing projects in progress to improve processes and efficiencies.
- Ongoing focus on improving how parts are manufactured, not just maintaining output.
You’ll be joining a business that is actively upgrading its capability and expects its engineers to play a key role in that journey.
The Role
This is a hands‑on Production Engineering role supporting machining operations.
It’s not a “sit behind a desk” position.
You’ll be working closely with the shop floor, taking CAD models from engineering and making sure they are machinable, efficient, and right first time.
You’ll be part of a team of experienced engineers, reporting directly to the Engineering Manager.
What You’ll Be Doing
- Create and develop CNC programs for lathes and machining centres.
- Work from SolidWorks models to support machining operations.
- Define and improve manufacturing processes.
- Produce routings, BOMs, and process documentation.
- Support the shop floor with technical problem solving.
- Improve cycle times, methods, and process reliability.
- Work closely with engineering, purchasing, and operations teams.
What They’re Looking For
They are very clear on this: They want a strong engineer first. Systems can be taught.
- Solid background in production/manufacturing engineering
- Proven experience with CNC machining (lathes and machining centres)
- Experience working with 3D CAD (SolidWorks preferred)
- Understanding of 4 and 5‑axis machining
- Ability to read and interpret engineering drawings
- Experience creating routings and BOMs
- Apprenticeship + HNC/HND (or equivalent experience)
- Around 5+ years in a similar role
The Team & Environment
- High calibre of capability in the team.
- Straightforward, down‑to‑earth culture.
This isn’t a place where people coast, it’s somewhere where you can continue to learn and develop throughout your career.
