This is a fantastic opportunity to join a tight-knit, skilled team where your expertise will be truly valued and where there is real scope for growth as the business expands.

You will work within a small turning department, jointly responsible for five CNC lathes, taking each job from initial programming right through to final inspection. The role demands a high degree of skill and ownership, this isn't a button-pushing role. You'll be expected to programme, set and run your own work, produce quality components and take pride in what you make.

Our client is a well-equipped precision engineering company, operating with a small but highly skilled team, they run an impressive array of plant including eight Haas Milling Machines, three Doosan CNC Lathes, a Haas ST-20Y mill turn lathe - with a further Doosan 2600M being added in May 2026.

The business has recently expanded into the automation sector, bringing new and exciting work through the door. With hands-on leadership from the Managing Director and a clear plan to grow both headcount and machine capacity over the coming years, this is a business with real ambition - and they want people who share it.

* Programming CNC lathes using Alphacam CAM software

* Handling batch sizes ranging from one-off prototypes to production runs of up to 400 parts

* De-burring, quality checking and final inspection of finished components

* Working both independently and collaboratively within the turning team

What We're Looking For

* Strong, proven experience programming, setting and operating CNC lathes - Doosan and Haas specifically

* Proficiency in Alphacam

* Experience machining a range of metals to tight tolerances

* The ability to manage the full manufacturing process autonomously

* A reliable, quality-focused approach and the ability to work well in a small team

What's on Offer

* Starting salary of £37,500 PA negotiable depending on experience

* 28 days holiday including Bank Holidays

* Discretionary additional two weeks paid leave over Christmas depending on business requirements

* Day shift only with early Friday finish - 07:30 - 16:00 Mon to Thursday, 07:30 to 13:30 Friday

* Opportunity to grow with a business that is actively expanding its capabilities
