Manufacturing Engineer-Aerospace-CNC Background EssentialManufacturing Engineer-Large Aerospace Part - Leicester (103354)

Apply now


Manufacturing Engineer-Aerospace-CNC Background EssentialManufacturing Engineer-Large Aerospace Part
Leicester, Leicestershire, England

The firm are seek a person who has worked on the shop floor in an aerospace manufacturing environment; coming from a CNC or ME background, your role will be to sign off drawings of engines parts (blades, disks and casings) from a manufacturability viewpoint.

The main aspects of the role are to liaise with the Manufacturing Engineers in relation to materials or components (estimating the cost of forging, machining prototypes) and then source the items that they need to increase production (nickel alloys in particular). The Manufacturing Engineering from an Aerospace company is essential as the company are solely aerospace providers; the experience gained must be on large aerospace parts rather than small components.

The other element of the role is that of a Buyer; it can be taught by the firm so if you have the ME experience listed above and fancy a more diverse role, then this would suit you down to the ground.

It will involve liaising with suppliers for the best price available and measuring their performance against agreed KPI’s. Experience of these elements are not needed as they can be taught; a willingness to learn these skills is paramount though as the successful candidate will be working almost independently. It’s a great opportunity to learn new techniques whilst retaining the Manufacturing Engineering role; ultimately you will be working on a new test rig for the firm.

Educational requirements are a minimum of a HND/HNC in engineering; apprentice trained (Toolmaking or CNC) would be very sought after too; this role is a very interesting and challenging with an opportunity to develop the role how you see fit at a later date. It’s based on days and a good salary.
